[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2753277, member: 8394"] One if the issues I think we rub in to is the wide variation in velocity. I've a buddy who loves mono metal bullets, but hunts exclusively with 165s in a 300 rum. He whacks all kinds of critters with it, but he rarely shoots past 350 and hunts mostly Moose and bears. His experience with those bullets aren't going to be the same for someone shooting mild loads with the same pill in a 308. In the same vein anothrt buddy has shot a couple animals with a 6.5 creed, he stepped up to a 6.5-300 wby to stretch a little farther... and shot a cow elk at about 125with the same bullet he loved in the creed. Needless to say it did not perform all that great. I had great luck with a certain weight swift a frame in my 7 rum, my buddy said he's shot fmjs from his 708 that opened better... Launch speed can heavily effect perception of a bullet. [/QUOTE]
