If you compare the 250g with the 300, the 250s look like they are very near end of life and ready to break apart, the 300 look together and have done their business perfectly. This was a Nosler Partition taken from a 6pt buck last year, shot in the brisket and it went completely lengthwise thru the deer and was in the off side near the hind quarter under the hide. Look at that mushroom and compare it to the 300 gold dot. I say perfect are the 300g, will the 250g do the job without a doubt, but the 300g are perfect. Chap
