At this point what do you say I should be ready to pay for a box if I were to find one.
212eldx or 215 Berger hybrid 300PRC on elk?

Bad part is that someone will feel they "need" this bullet and actually pay that price-- thus keeping the prices high -- 'merica

So is the 208 berger for sale at Midway right now that much different than the 215??
Between the two, "IF" you have them, I vote for the 215.
Not much. I experimented with the 208 last year. Shot lots of hogs and two deer. Everything i shot performed like the 215's. The deer I shoot you could pretty much run your arm through the cavity. I wouldn't hesitate to not use them. I actually have a 300 win mag zeroed in with them. I can post the recipe shortly with them. I can pull it up on a spreadsheet using my phone.

That's what I bought because the 215s have been unobtainable. 7 grains won't mean anything....same construction.

Same here....250 pack to stand in place of the 215's if my 205 badlands don't shoot to my liking.....

I can't believe they are available actually. If you need a replacement for the 215 the 208 would be my choice

And there has been 210vld hunters with scattered availability...
Maybe they are a little thinner/thicker than the 208's??
Why in God's green earth would a company have such a good thing in the 215 then make 27 more items and not be able to delivery any of them to keep pace with demand?? I can't fathom this stupidity.
Of course Nosler could put a plastic tip on a partitioned vld shaped bullet and own the whole market. Gosh, maybe I need to settle down must be ready for Saturday LOL

I bought the Berger 215's quite a few years ago and have had great luck with them on a lot of animals, but running low on them so don't shoot it much anymore. They are in my 300 win mag. It does a great job on elk for sure!
