[QUOTE="mgood, post: 1141647, member: 91188"] The selection is limited, but there are bullets to select from. I want to shoot 220+ gr bullets and there just aren't a whole lot of them. If I wanted to shoot 180 gr bullets, I could do that with a 300 mag of some sort and have a better BC. So I figure heavier bullets are where I'll see some advantage to the bigger bore. My top candidates are Barnes 200 gr TSX Hawk 220 gr Nosler 200 gr AccuBond (I wish they'd make a 220 AB.) Nosler 200 gr Partition Sierra 220 gr GameKing Swift 220 gr A-Frame (I'm leaning toward this for a big bear cartridge.) I bought an 8mm Rem Mag not too long ago. Haven't killed anything with it yet, just getting it dialed in. I've been shooting 200 gr AccuBond but I intend to try some of the others on that list. [/QUOTE]
