Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting 300 RUM Best Ballistic Balance - Velocity vs Bullet Wt.

In my 309 RUM I use the 200gr Accubond. It is a hell of a good elk bullet. Not the greatest box, but adequate. Rifle is a ss Nesika action, 30” Rock barrel McM HTR stock. It has worked excellent out to 1180 on a large Mike deer and 850 on an elk. The LR Accubonds weren’t out when I developed that load but at 3250 it does a great job. Haven’t tried any VLD’s out of it and will likely stick with what has worked so well in the past.
