[QUOTE="BEEMAN, post: 2437739, member: 38130"] I have had good luck with the 215 Berger out of my 300 Win. Multiple deer in the 500 to 750 yd range. With one elk at 625 yds. The bullet has performed well, but I am thinking about trying a hammer in the 166 to 180 gr range. Depending on the hit with the 215 the meat loss can be substantial. It’s hard to make the change when I haven’t lost an animal or seen a failure. Most of my animals are shot under 500 yds so I think I might try a hammer this year. If you do use the 215 I wouldn’t have any concerns. As mentioned just make sure to check that the tips are open before hunting. Plugged ones use to foul or shoot targets. [/QUOTE]
