[QUOTE="Brad from ND, post: 470222, member: 23995"] I'll be going to CO this fall for my first elk hunt. I'm trying to decide which bullet I want to use. I know that accubonds will work perfectly, but was really wanting to develop a load with Bergers this year for target shooting anyway. It would be nice to just have 1 load. My question is whether or not the Berger VLD's will hold up. Shots will be between 100-600 yards. The rifle is a 300 RUM with a 26 in barrel. I'm trying to decide between the 200 AB's and 210 Berger VLD. The velocities from both will be just over 3000 fps which is why I'm questioning the Bergers ability to hold together if a close range shot is taken. I'm looking for any input from guys that have used VLD's in similar rifles with closer range shots on elk. Thanks Brad [/QUOTE]
