Many 30 caliber nuts (of which I certainly am) simply think that if 180grains is good, 200 must be better. In actuality most 30cals will yield better penetration with quality 180s than they do with 200s. Most of them simply don't develope enough velocity to drive a 200 fast enough to perform too its potential. Some of the super 30s will drive 200s plenty fast, but realistically there aren't as many quality 200s out there as there are 180s and the 180s will completely penetrate elk sized game when fired at such velocity so what more is needed?

Stick with TSX, FailSafes etc or at least the newer "bonded" type pills like AccuBonds, Trophy Bondeds etc and you wont have a minutes problem from that 300WSM (or anyother 30cal for that matter),
