2,400fps with a 300gr. Hornady would be perfect, I'd think. Any faster and this thin jacketed RN might over expand.
In Rod. H's tests, the 300gr. Interbond (gold bullet) showed even more expansion than the standard RN, with a typical bubble-gum-stick-together huge final diameter-type expansion. We also tried cup-pointing some of them and the expansion was greater yet, even lower initial speeds.

I If one cuts an animal apart and sees little internal hemorrhage or tissue damage when the lungs should have been well holed (2" to 3"?) or shredded, then one might complain the bullets did not expand well.

Norma's "Alaskan" brand bullets have thinner jackets for expansion at lower speeds.

That is the same velocity I shoot my bullets out of my 416 Rem with 400 gr bullets--works very well and have always had good expansion and very good penetration with both solids and softs..
