I just bought a box of 220 grain Silvertips for the 300 Mag in the old yellow Winchester box. I'd love to try them on something large
I had some of these in 180 grain in a 300H&H back in the '70's to shoot a couple deer and a small bear. They were old then. The shots were at close range, under 50 yds. They pretty much blew up didn't penetrate well, all three were broadside behind the shoulder shots, two died pretty quick, but one deer ran about 300 yds, big wound on the surface, lungs and heart were full of fine shrapnel, no real hole in them, looked like they were hit with fine birdshot.
