[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 691382, member: 13632"] I shoot a lot of the 165 Matrix and some 175's, great bullets in my opinion. The are not as aggressive a design as the Berger but us J4 jackets. We've killed a lot of elk and deer with the 165 from our 270 wins and 270 WSMs. They work a lot like the Berger, and leave a very good wound channel, blew two very nice holes through a bull last year at 865 yards. The VLD won't expand reliably to 1200fps, I have a couple that I found that I shot at 1900 yards with my WSM and they are just above that and some will open and some will be bent bananas. I would bet the hunting rbbt bonded bullets would open lower though because they have a giant meplat. The have been the most accurate bullet I've shot in what ever I've shot them in. I just got another few hundred today for this hunting season gun) I'm going to give the 190 a try if I ever get a 7-300 Norma mag built. [/QUOTE]
