[QUOTE="LeddSlinger, post: 2308853, member: 65338"] Berger 250gr Elite Hunter is one of the most accurate and best performing hunting bullets I have ever used in 30 years of hunting big game in Montana. I have been taking animals with many various Berger bullets in 6.5, 30, and 338 since 2006. After many years of evaluating countless kills with many of the great well known and proven Berger hunting bullets, their 250gr in 338 cal no doubt gives exceptional performance on all size animals at any shot angle when compared to the rest. I am also seeing the same excellent results from the new 30 cal 220gr Long Range Hybrid bullet in my 300 NMI. Have taken 4 animals with it now (4 mule deer bucks and 1 antelope buck) and the performance mimics the 250gr in 338. Excellent penetration, massively destructive internal damage, and very little meat damage on the outside. I have had perfect performance on bull elk with the 338 250gr but have not taken a bull elk with the 30 cal 220gr yet. Hope to do so sometime soon to see if the 220gr maintains the same excellent performance I have seen so far on deer and antelope. [/QUOTE]
