[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 531448, member: 30671"] Pretty much most of my thoughts have been expressed. 1) I find no fault with either choice as a big game cartridge. 2) The good .30 caliber bullets start at 200 grains. I've seen the .30 180 Partition fail to break/penetrate shoulders on bigger game, game that was recovered due to fortuitous circumstances allowing follow up shots. My answer to the why the .338 question given your particular parameters is a bit better terminal performance over time in my experience. Again I find no fault with the .300's my answer could change if the parameters of the question did. [/QUOTE]
