[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 644167, member: 29890"] I'm not sure what your barrel length and twist are, but if I were going to shoot the 230 OTM I would want atleast a 26" 10 twist, even better with a 28-30" to break 2800fps a lot easier, but since there isn't a huge difference between the 215 and 230 OTM bc wise, i'd stick with the 215 as the heaviest in a win mag. Winchester brass is tough and last a good while but for best results it should be weight sorted. Also no need to turn the necks unless you have a tight neck chamber, and by your post mentioning a Lee collet die I'm guessing you do not. Just clean the necks up with 4 ought steel wool or 600 grit sand paper. I would also steer clear of the collet die and get a Redding type S. For your game and distance selection, the 180 BT or accubond will do the job just fine with Imr4350 and BR2 primerrs and should break 3K fps with a low ES. [/QUOTE]
