[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1266425, member: 30902"] I've found Nosler brass in my 7mm STW and 300 Rum to be good brass with very little problems. Unless you're running a short throat and/or short barrel you should be fine with H1000 and the 180-200gr class bullets. Two of my .300wm's like both the Accubond and Accbond LR in 180/190gr. They both shot the new ELD-X quite well but I don't like bullets that separate so I gave up on them early. On deer and hogs for the last month I've been shooting Peregrine VRG-4 "Rangemasters" through the .260 Rem and 300 Rum. The 6.5's were 125gr and the .30's are 180gr. I loaded up forty of the new Peregrine VLR4 183gr this evening for the .300's but didn't get a chance to shoot them. If they shoot as well as the VRG4's I'll finish up the season with them and hopefully take a few more big hogs with them as well. I've never had a Hornady Interbond fail or disappoint me in any way and they are finally back in production starting to show up in factory ammo so hopefully we'll see the bullets on the shelf for components sooner rather than later. Both the Accubond and Accubond LR"s have shot decently to great for me and always seem to perform as advertised when they connect. I prefer a bonded bullet over anything else when it comes to lead core bullets and while I have rather limited experience with the Hornady GMX and now the Peregrines but they have opened my eyes to the fact that not only are they "green bullets" they are also capable of great accuracy and terminal performance as well. I can't quite say yet that I'm ready to give up on Hornady Interbonds yet but until I see something different performance wise than what I've been getting out of the Peregrines they are probably going to become my "go to hunting bullet" for the future especially if the new VLRs prove out to be what they are intended to be which is a long range version of the VRG4 that will still open reliably even at slower downrange impact velocities.
