[QUOTE="Marine sniper, post: 799657, member: 4768"] I have shot 2 elk with 210 Bergers out of my 300 Wby. Launched at 3000 fps, 3x5 bull at 464 yards hit high in the back (bottom of spine) total penetration 10-12 inches, biggest bullet fragment (no exit) size of a #6 buck shot. Totally blew up. Elk dropped in his tracks. Elk #2; same rifle, etc. Smaller bull at 275 yards. Exact same shot placement and results. I have read Broz's reports with the 230's and would like to try them, except the 210's shoot so well out of my custom 300 Wby......it would be a waste of time. I do have a 338 hulk (wildcat based on the Lapua, shortened, blown out,etc) think 338 PPC, that I will try the 300's in. John [/QUOTE]
