I've seen exceptional accuracy with the 200 GK in my Remington .300 Winchester Magnum and I was curious about the experiences of any who have used this bullet for elk. I don't hunt a great deal as many here do. I suppose I've taken a dozen bulls in the last thirty years.

With the exception of my first bull taken in Colorado with a .338-06 and a 225 grain Hornady bullet, I've used mostly Barnes bullets in .270 (130 grain), 7x61 (150 grain), and .308 (150 grain and 168 grain). I've used 160 Partitions in the 7x61 only on two or three elk. In response to your question, I haven't used the 160 Partition in several years, but I don't think the bullet has changed in that time. All bullets have worked well; no complaints, no animals lost and none had to be tracked.

As I mentioned previously, I enjoy developing loads for a variety of bullets in rifles.
