Hello from Colorado!
I've been watching the forum for awhile now and finally decided to pull the trigger in joining, I've been hunting for just about as long as I can remember I've primarily been a western big game hunter here in the states as well as exotics in Texas and now things are starting to shape up to where I can start going on international hunts and have always dreamed of africa as every hunter I suppose. I am a big weatherby fan but also have other rifles from other companies. I can't wait to soak up all the information and knowledge from this forum

I am currently using an 30-378 with the 230gr bergers, I am also a big fan of the 257 wby, 340 wby and 378 wby

Welcome!

I too am a fan of Weatherby. Welcome to the minority. I’ve got a 300 wby, been looking at a 340 Or 375 for a while.

Welcome!

How do you like berger bullet performance on elk? I’ve used 180 grain 7mag Berger’s on elk and they seem to work well.

 

[CO_mtnman]

So far I haven't been able to test them at distance like I've been wanting too but so far they haven't let me down. Took a bull at 115 in the heart and he took 4 hops and never got up. Took a cow at about 250 and drt. So far I haven't had any excess meat damage unless I hit bone then it just ruins both quarters (on deer)
