[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 898552, member: 10391"] How much meat is lost has never been an issue with me. I just want the animal to go down even with a poorly placed bullet. More importantly I want to see a reaction from the animal that it was indeed hit. I have had good success with the 200gr Accubond and the 190gr Berger in a 30-06. Two bucks one bull DRT all around 500 yards with the Berger's. Two bulls with the Accubond 4-500 yard with one going about 200 yards needing a second shot. I'm building a 300 WM and will set the barrel up for use with the 215gr Berger's. A lot of this decision comes the reporting "Broz" has done and my experience with the Berger's in the 06. As a side note. The first bull I ever killed was in eastern Idaho in 1976. He was way down the slope looking at me straight on. I just laid the cross hair at the top of his horns and squeezed it off. The shot blew him over backwards dead right there hitting him at the base of the neck just down on the brisket. The bullet was a 150gr Hornady Spire Point from my 30-06....go figure! [/QUOTE]
