[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 598664, member: 21869"] Start new in General discusion. You guys are making me nervious w/ Berger. I have taken speed goats from 5-600 w/ 87 gr. Then a couple w/300 gr. due to bad wind reads on trophy goats,550-800 yrd. Summary, blew big holes in them. Shot a 6x6 in thick stuff this year? Entrance and exit fist sized on 50 yrd. brush shoot. Copious amounts of blood.So I went out today and took leg bone from elk, off ball joint area and shot at 200 yrd w/ 325 WSM-200 NAB. clean hole in and split ball joint, broke and about 1/2 dollar crater on back. Shot same w/338 Norma 300 gr.Blew leg bone in half @ center. Then shot larger end joint,about a fist and 1/2, had leg wired to 1/2 osb at range.Shot grenaded the joint into pieces and blew a grapefruit sized hole threw OSB.Now this is larger than . 308. But since I already shot a bull close, in tough conditions, and totally blew up large leg joint, I Have NO, reservations out of my 338 w/ 300 Berger [/QUOTE]
