[QUOTE="Broz, post: 900618, member: 7503"] Doc, I am no fan of high expansion bullets under 210 gr in a 300 win. I feel it cheats the rifle of a lot of killing ability. I go for larger bullets that can fragment off the front 1/2 and still have a chunk to carry on. If you have a 300 win you should give the 215 Berger Hybrid a try. I posted pics from 19 consecutive big game kills at all distances. For now I do not feel there is a better bullet for a 300 win than the 215 Hybrid is a guy is going to even consider a shot past 500 yards. We stones bull elk at 200 and antelope at 1285 with them. The short bearing surface gives great velocity, I have seen 2990's from a few 26" 300 wins but expect 2900 plus with H-1000, the .696 BC bucks the wind, and they have opened at impact velocities under 1700 fps for me on antelope. They are very sought after and hard to find for a reason. But I hear a run is coming soon. Buy some up and try them. If you don't like them I will take them off your hands. Jeff [/QUOTE]
