Sharpie,

Did you find the H1000 consistent with velocity? Extreme spread and standard deviation?

What kind of rifle are you shooting? And what was their recommended start/max load for H1000?

Rem Sendero .300WIN. Velocity was very consistent. I'd have to check my notes when i got home but i shot 4, 5 shot groups and 3 out of five rounds in all groups were within 10fps so id call that consistant.

MIN = 65.3
Max = 77.6

Marky you will like the 215's. Multiple deer from 500 to 734 yds and one elk at 625 yds. Bullet performs excellent. Just make sure to check that the tips are open or you could end up with no expansion. Drill bit, needle, paper clip etc all work for this.

215 bergers vld fly nice ,,, but smash up that meat to much..
Wonder if the hornady boolits stay together a bit better..
My 30 378 pops them out a little to fast for jacketed bullets ,,,switched to monolithic bullets long time ago for meat anyhow..
I'm have to try some ELD bombers later on .
Happy shoting
