[QUOTE="LRhunter13, post: 2344875, member: 103474"] I’ve put 1000s of Berger 215s through multiple 300rums around the 2900fps mark. Although the MV is a little slow for a RUM it should be very comparable to the MV you would achieve with your WsM. I’ve personally used this bullet to take many bull elk, cow elk, mule deer and antelope. These animals were all ranging from 260-759 yards, one mule deer buck at just over 100yds. I’ve also taken many elk/deer using 30cal 180gr partitions and 212 eld-x. Bottom line in my particular experience has been the Berger 215s produce great terminal results when placed where they need to go, they have a great BC (.691G1) helping with extended range and they have been liked by every rifle I’ve run them in. The eld-x doesn’t seem to produce the same constant accuracy IME but it has provided good terminal performance at the 300-400 range. Partitions provided great terminal performance at closer ranges but it doesn’t have the extended range performance due to the lower BC. (.474G1) [/QUOTE]
