.300 WIN MAG ammo advice needed
I was shooting 165 Grain Federal Nosler Ballistic Tip for deer. To my chagrin, the bullet has been discontinued (unless someone can point me somewhere that has them). I do not reload myself. With the increase in price of ammo, some choices are just $$rediculous$$. What would you go with (yes, I am using a 300 win mag for deer)?
165 gr Nosler Partition $48.49 165 gr Barnes Triple-shock-X $50.99 165 gr Fed Fusion Spitzer Boat Tail $33.49 150 gr Fed Speer Trophy Bonded Bear Claw $22.49 150 gr Winchester Supreme Elite XP3 $46.99 165 gr Hornady Interbond$33.99 Other? |

Any of those will work fine for deer. Just find the one that shoots best out of YOUR rifle and stick with them.;)

I'd choose the cheapest and go with that.

I use the regular Federal Ammo
Last time I bought some it was $14 a box! You do not need Federal Supreme ammo or top of the line bullets to kill a whitetail deer. I use Federal Classic ammo with Sierra Pro Hunter 180 gr bullets. I have yet to see a deer walk away after being shot with one of them. |

My local dealer has 4 boxes of 300 win mag Hornady ammo 165 grain SST for 23.00 a box...Interbond will not be needed for a deer

The plain ol blue box Federal as The Rifleman mentioned can be had at Wal Mart...prob only 1`80 gr though.

I would go withthe fusions they are getting good reviews from what I can see and the price is just a little above reasonalble.
