I shot quite a good size Red stag several years back with my 300 Rum with a 208 gr A Max, 90 yards quatering away from me. Hit behind the shoulder the bullet exited front of chest, that stag folded all his legs up under his belly and lay there on his belly, never seen a twitch of anything stone dead. I suppose 4500 odd foot pounds energy has to account for something. Have you tried any of the ELD X or A Max in your Rum?

Yeah. I tried everything in this rifle and the only thing that shot was the Berger.
