[QUOTE="Guest, post: 29578"] This year has provided me with ample opportunity to compare the 180 Ballistic Tip from a .300 Win Mag and the 200 gr Accubond from the .300RUM. We have taken antelope at 410 and 852 yds with the 200 gr Accubond with complete pass thru's on both. The 410 yd shot took out both front shoulders on a doe wounded by another hunter. Neither had significant meat damage. The 180 gr BT has taken three deer and 4 feral dogs that were running deer on my lease. Two of the deer were double lung shots and had no meat damage but one was a spine shot and completely ruined the backstraps and tenderloin. The dogs showed about the same type damage as the deer, although I wasn't as careful in placing the shots as I was on the deer. They have all been pit bull/chow crosses that run loose in the area where I hunt. I would NOT shoot an elk with the 180 BT, unless it was absoutely necessary(wounded animal, etc). It is still primarily a deer bullet, stick with the Accubonds and Partitions for the heavier stuff. [/QUOTE]
