Hornady Precision Hunter 200gr ELDX

That's what we set my dad's 300WSM up with. They grouped and shot great. Another great choice, and a lot easier to find.

Thanks

The Hornady SST 180 has worked good for me. Just make sure that if you go that route, try and buy several boxes with the same lot number.

The 212 ELD-X from Hornady is great too. Very long though.

Kinda had it narrowed down to the sst, barnes and federal premium trophy bonded

Try ABM Ammo. They are owned by Berger now and make great loads. They offer the 210 now as well.

I once had a 300 WM. Everything I read talked about accuracy. Snipers used them. I didn't need anything bigger and the 308 bullets are generally the shitz depending on specific guns. Some like different bullets from others.

Anyway, after enough deer had bit the dust and I had developed a flinch, that took 2 years to cure, I went to the 308. Damn I love a 308.

180gr Nosler BT's are hard to beat for that caliber, I've been loading them for my 300WSM for a few years now, and they absolutely hammer deer without completely de-atomizing them. The two that I have been able to recover looked nearly identical to accubonds after passing through both shoulders at close range.

Nosler redesigned the jacket and base on that bullet a few years ago, making them considerably tougher than they used to be.

Accubonds should be generally used for elk sized game, IMO.
