Answer (for me) is ... (c) None of the above.
In my 300 PRC (Barrett MRAD) I get awesome results to beyond a mile with the Berger 220 Long Range Hybrid Target.

You did post this in the reloading sub-forum.
I’m not sure anyone other than you can answer which factory ammunition would be best coming from your gun.
But a couple boxes of each and see what the gun likes. Every rifle / barrel has it's own specific tastes!
The problem is that the only thing I see available in factory ammo is the Hornady 212 or the Berger 205, there is no other availability u less I do a Load Development (which I have no clue how to) thank you all
I too didn't have a clue and shot only factory ammo until about 5 years ago. Then I taught myself, with the help of YouTube and some friends here at the Hide ... and now I couldn't imagine every using factory ammo for anything other than warming up a barrel for my handloads.
Then buy a box of each offering. Fire it and see which one gives you the best groups. That is the absolute only way to know for sure.
Every rifle is somewhat unique. Even 2 rifles with sequential serial numbers assembled by the same people on the same assembly line may differ in their performance when it comes to which ammo they shoot well.
There is no easy button or magic answer.
