[QUOTE="AKGuide, post: 927129, member: 64701"] I would use the 200 LRX in a WSM especially if you might shoot a grizzly. It worked flawlessly for me on caribou and wouldn't think twice about pulling the trigger on a grizz. Just like any barnes they like to be pushed hard and also like a lot of jump. I would also look into the 180 grain swift scirocco. I found it retains weight better than the accubond in my experience and was easy to tune in my cousins WSM. A stiff load of H4831 with a .015" jump is what worked for his rifle. I have heard that R17 is a great powder choice also. He has taken two nice bull moose cleanly. The one bullet we found weighed 151 grains after passing through the boiler room of a 54" bull at 130 yards. All the barnes bullets I have shot game with I have never recovered them, they were all pass through shots. Reuben [/QUOTE]
