[QUOTE="Skimbleshanks, post: 2134412, member: 22552"] I like Bergers. They work as you described. Ive never pushed them really fast at close range however. I think that is the concern and the reason for using a bonded bullet. If you're expecting shots from real close to kinda far with a sizable magnum then a bonded bullet might work well even though killing might not be as fast. Compared to a non bonded bullet going fast at 50 yards splashing and wounding an animal without making it to the vitals. No bullet is ideal for every situation. I like 175 Bergers from my 30-06 going a mid velocity. When and if I hunt with my 300RUM I will be looking for a heavier bullet, a "harder" or bonded bullet or most likely both. [/QUOTE]
