[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 590346, member: 22242"] I dont shoot bergers except in my 22-250, but I shoot SMK's which are similar in design in my 338 and they blow up on everything, If anything I have decided that if it were not for the sheer weight of my 300 SMK's it would fail almost every time. No way would I use that bullet on an elk at any range, especially with a beginner hunter who is more apt than an experienced shooter to make a less than perfect shot. I would have loaded her up with 100 partitions and cut the distance in half. but it worked out so thats pretty awesome for the young lady. [/QUOTE]
