[QUOTE="kweidner, post: 552740, member: 4964"] look at all the success of Berger and how they drop them. We were doing this 20 years ago with Ed Watson's J4 benchrest 52gr. Never recovered a bullet, never lost a deer, never had to track a deer with those. The limitations were simply range. If I had not started the long range thing I'd probably be shooting solely them. I kept seeing really nice game farther than I knew my rifle could take them. Got a cooper in 6.5 x .284. lerned to shoot past its limitations and now own a 300 Rum. The Rum gets to my longest available shot with plenty of energy to take down a deer. My cooper is probably the most accurate out to 600 and I still shoot them all. Shot placement is critical no matter what you shoot. If you shoot Barnes shoot for bone. J4 jacket benchrest bullets, neck or head, bergers go for just befind the shoulder. There is no. do all. you just need to know your limitations of your rifle, your bullet, and you. [/QUOTE]
