Frequently asked questions

Is the 185-grain OTM bullet suitable for hunting, or is it primarily a target round?

OTM bullets work for both hunting and precision shooting. The open tip aids aerodynamic performance; performance on game depends on shot placement and distance. Always verify your specific hunting application before purchasing.

What barrel twist rate do I need to stabilize this 185-grain load?

Heavier .300 WSM bullets typically require faster twist rates—commonly 1:10 or faster. Check your rifle's specifications to confirm stability. Berger's website provides detailed twist-rate recommendations for their projectiles.
