I took several elk with the 300 Win Mag. The first wast taken with 150 gr. Remington factory ammo because my reloads were in plastic aftermarket boxes and they would not ship my 200 gr. reloads in them. I got off the plane in Jackson Hole and the only factory ammo I could find was the mentioned Remington 150's. Hit said elk broadside thru the ribs and lo and behold the big SOB dropped. Found the very flattened bullet under the hide on the far side still containing some lead. Range 90 yards. The rifle has a 26 inch barrel, shoots mighty fine for the guy I sold it to (don't know why I sold it as I am building another) and he is very happy with his rifle that he uses for all his hunting with 150 gr. Remington factory ammo. Go figure. Would I prefer a Weatherby over the Winchester round, no.
