GrosVentreGeorgeI haven't used them in the calibers you have specified, but I have used them in my 270 wsm. I can't say a bad word against them. Every deer I have used them on has taken only one dose of lead and given up the fight. I hope to use them on some elk next year and maybe a moose.

woodsHey Columbo
I have a buddy that loves the 180 gr in his 300 win mag. If the shop has any I would be glad to send you the money plus shipping for a couple of boxes. I only have 15 left.

Columbo57Sorry, woods but they only have one box of 150s three boxes of 165s and two boxes of 300/375s. I found 5 boxes of factory loads 4/7mag-160s and one 180/06s at an evan smaller gun shop 5miles from the first one! Probably gonna snag all the bullets from the first shop even though dont own a 375 yet.
