I like the 210/250 Nosler Partition for the elk and such. As the area I hunt 200+ yd shot is not likely.

Right now,I load the 250 gr NP in the RUM,it's only going 2865 fps and it's a wee bit more accurate than the 210 gr NP I used on the cow elk in the pic above. Could get more fps,then the recoil become unbearable. Matter of fact,did get 3000 fps from a 250 gr Sierra,I felt like a punching bag for a heavy-weight boxer.
