.308 Woodleigh bullets

Do you guys use those bullets for your hunting and what is your opinion on them?
I am interested in using them in my either 30-06 or 300wsm for an elk hunt in BC in case if there is a big bear around.
I am looking at 200-220 gr for that purpose.
Thanks

I bet those will take up a fair bit of powder space in a WSM. I haven’t used them but I’m sure they are more then adequate. I’d be pretty tempted to load a 180g tsx in that cartridge. It would do everything and anything in this Country.
