I would definitely want the Barnes for Elk. I don't think it will matter a whole lot on our puny Florida deer if I use a 200 gr Hornady, Silvertip, or either of the Barnes originals.

Jorge, did you decided on which powder to go with? I am waiting on the dies to arrive and need to get some more powder. I have cases of Kik 3F but I don't think it will do too well in the .348

Guns don't kill people, it's mostly the bullets
