[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2479130, member: 103947"] My comment was meant simply for wind bucking ability. You can bet that 300 grain Berger will beat that 250 in wind at that 2K range. That was my meaning. Weight momentum with that extra 300 ft lbs will help in wind. Weight gives that advantage providing BC is as good or in this case quite a bit better. Energy will carry that heavier bullet into a big elk or moose better aside from tissue damage given equal or close velocities. Both bullets constructed equally I'd say the heavier on bigger heavier game would give it the edge. That's an opinion more than fact. Haven't ever needed a 338 Lapua for any game animal I've hunted nor killed any big heavy bones critters with one at 1000+ yards to say. [/QUOTE]
