[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1786707, member: 30902"] If you're lucky much of the "hunt" will be done horseback. Most of the outfitters there do a pretty darn good job of keeping the hunt within tolerances for the hunter. Email the guys over at Peregrine and see if they can get you some of their latest VLR5's. Be sure to let them know the twist rate on your barrel as mono's get long in a hurry and require a tighter twist than taditional bullets. I shoot them in both my 300wm's and 300 Rum's. What I have are the 183gr. They fly better than their BC in the wind. Here in Texas we deal with a whole lot of wind about 250 days a year so that's an important consideration. If you can't get them the Interbond and LRX are great choices but I have yet to find anything that gives me as close to idea terminal performance at any range than the Peregrine. They have a specialized design in their nose that makes it essentially a shape charge that is powered by extremely high pressure compressed air on impact so no matter what they open. The few I've recovered end up looking "stove piped" and mushroomed to anywhere from 1.5-+2.5x bullet diameter. I tend to get golf ball sized exits no matter the range or what they hit with massive internal damage but very little meat loss even with spine/shoulder hits. [/QUOTE]
