Imo, no!

But also imo, a 200 grainer (which will have a much better BC than the slower moving round-nosed 220 grainers), moving from the mid 2400s to the mid 2500s, will be equally as effective for the short ranges and of course would be better should your shooting distances be greater than expected.

For elk and bear, I don`t see what a 220 grainer could do for you that a 200 grainer could not do or even a good 190 for that matter.

In my over 40 years of hunting using the 30 caliber, I`ve never used a 220 gr bullet.

Better versatility with a 200.
