In my opinion RN bullets are more accurate, they are closer to the rifling and have a longer bearing surface. That's why the big bores have a reputation for being accurate. They are not long range bullets. My 340 shoots best with 275 gr Speer semi RN that are no longer made. Regards Martin | |||

Is the BC quoted by Hornady on there website for there .375 300 gr RN correct ?? They list it as .25 but there 270 gr Round Nose is listed as being .253 giving it a slighlty higher BC tna the heavier offering. I thought that the 300 gr RN should have the higher bc. Anyone care to comment ?? | |||

My .300 WBY. like Hornady 180gr RN the best. I use it for pig and bear hunting ane east TN ranges are usually measured in feet so I was not conserned with downrange performance. Under 100 yards, nothing....I mean nothing has even taken a step when hit. BUT they do alot of meat damage from WBY velocities. Rick | |||

Todbartell, thanks for that I also e-mailed Hornady just to check with them. I f I get a reply back I will post it here for anyones interest. I have settled on the Hornady 300 gr round nose .375 bullet for pigs over the 270 gr sp. Ranges will be not over 200 yards with the majority no more than a 100 yards. I feel with the more lead showing on these .375 300 gr RN Hornady's they should be devestating on pigs. I will be now using round noses in my .375, 30/06 & .416 Rigby for pigs this June. | |||
