[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1094368, member: 5219"] You left out the 230 gr Match target hybrid. Based on the highest BC it would be the 230 gr match version. Based on what Broz has contributed the 215 might be your best choice for deer with a bit more expansion. Broz said he preferred the 215 over either 230 unless the shots were going to be close on the larger bodied animals like elk. Don't worry about seating the any of these hybrids deeply into the case. Even with a substantial jump to the rifling the hybrids usually will shoot with little or no seating depth tweaking. Three of us chose the 230 gr match target hybrid. Two rifles are the 300 RUM the other a 300 WSM. My RUM shot a cow elk at 250 yd and the 300 WSM shot a cow elk at 300 yd. I saw the results. Both bullets exited and the elk died quickly. The other RUM shot an AK moose at approx. 80 yds and an aoudad at 680 yds. Both times the bullet exited and animals died quickly. Broz has much more experience with these two bullets. Read here and make your decision. I would venture to say you will be happy with either. : [url]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f19/comparing-berger-210-vld-215-hybrid-88657/index12.html[/url] [url]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f19/berger-230-300-otm-hybrid-terminal-results-80283/[/url] [url]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f19/230-hybrid-target-vs-230-hybrid-otm-82043/index4.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
