[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 712904, member: 7999"] I have hunted with the GS Custom HV bullets now for quite a few years. They have performed flawlessly. They kill exceptionally with good placement or bad. Yes I have made some poor shots, unfortunately. But the poor shots teach you a lot about a bullet. Meat loss is minimal and nothing has traveled after being shot. Short range or long range. This year I am trying the cutting edge bullets and will report back in a couple weeks. As far as bullet choice for the 30-378, I don't think I am going to disagree with any of the earlier posts. I think your best choice is the 173g GS hv. As for the lead core bullets the Sirocco is the best if it will shoot out of the factory barrel. Any other lead core bullet should be the heaviest that you have enough twist for. The 200g Accubond will most likely shoot well, they seem to shoot out of most every rifle. Again my vote is for the 173g hv will run out of the 30-378 will run them around 3600 fps and they will be good for almost every animal on the planet. My .02 Steve [/QUOTE]
