Hunting & Fishing 215 berger 230 berger or 225 eldm? For hunting 300 win mag

My 300 liked, but didn’t love the 215 Bergers, they shot ok. I killed several whitetails with the 215 from 100 out to 650ish. No complaints about the 215 performance. I never recovered a bullet and I never lost an animal with it. My rifle loves the 212 eldx. I’ve had the same results with both Bullets on deer. I pushed both Bullets with H1000 out of a trued model 70 with a 28” Broughton 1:10 in a manners eh1.

How did speed compare between the 2? I have had great results with 212 eldx in other rifles. Just been using the 225eldm for targets but wanted to hunt with what i target shoot with
 
I'm at 3060 with the 212. The 215 was around 2950, I think... it was definitely a little slower.
I have a 28 inch barrel 1-8 twist trying the 245 bergers nothing good yet. 225eldm shoot amazing. But i do have a really long throat so idk what that will do to the shorter 212 eld x lol

I dont have the COAL with me right now, but I'm definitely jumping the 212s. The Berger's shot best just off of the lands
