The problem you run into with hunting is the bullet selection for the 300. Most bullet are 308 and are made to expand at 308 velocities. The best hunting bullet for supersonic is the 110 barnes. Supposed to reliably expand down to 1300 fps. Depending on what you shoot that's around 300 yards. I've had good luck with deer shooting the 110 vmax. The vmax is a varmint bullet, but at 300 blackout velocity it behaves like a normal hunting bullet. I'm shooting a 16" barrel bolt gun
Right. The nosler is supposed to be in that same neighborhood.. From what Ive researched it seems the guys trying to shoot 150-300 yards with the subsonic rounds is what's given the 300 a bad rep..
