    Curious if anyone has had the opportunity to test these bullets side by side at distance ?

    I am still using old stock 190/210's in a 300 WMm that will likely last till its re-barrel time, but thought I might pick some up for the next go round as the BC's are a fair bit higher. Primary use LR/ELR and hunting too.
     
    Not directly applicable, but I'm shooting the 220 lrht's, which I've read is basically a pointy 215. BC is every bit they claim, out of a 10 twist no less. I'm at 3140 from a RUM case though.

    Can't say on the comparison with the 208, but I do run the 215's in a 28" barrel 300WM with 75gr H1000 at 2970fps with 1/10 twist. Accuracy is amazing and they seem to fly a little better than the stated BC would indicate.
