I haven't got to try the 215 Hybrid's in my 300 rum yet because I moved over 3 months ago and I haven't set up my reloading room yet. It's killing me. Have loads for 6.5 PRC and 6.5x 284 with Berger 156 EOL and new 144 hybrid I want to try. This year I wasn't thrilled with 140 VLD on 2 antelope does. 143 ELDX did well on one doe lope and 2 buck mulies . Used a factory Norma 140 Oryx out of 6.5x284 on a whitetail doe. Minimal damage. Have had good luck with 168 VLD out of 7mm Rem mag. Very accurate. Have only tried 185 and 190 VLD's of of 300 rum . They always worked well on elk and deer. Moving up to 215's. Bought some 230"s but think it's going to be a waste of $. Probably have to seat too deep in factory box. Just had a Bartlien 28 in. barrel put on it. Action trued. New firing pin and spring. New stock. Got it cerakoted. AND I HAVEN'T EVEN GOT TO SHOOT IT YET!!!
