[QUOTE="redneckclimbing, post: 687375, member: 41124"] I shot three elk last year with the 168gr. Berger HVLD. One dropped in it's tracks, one went 5 steps, and one went 8 steps! All were shot behind the shoulder from 250 - 300 yds. After that I will defenitely be using them again this year. This was out of a 7mm RM but with the 150's you should still be pretty good and closer in speed. Another one I have been thinking about for bears and elk in the brush, is the Speer Deep Curl 160 gr. they claim 95% weight retention, slightly rounded nose should open up well and penetrate like crazy with that weight retention, and the best part, they are pretty **** cheap! Could be a great 300yd. and in bullet on just about anything. [/QUOTE]
