I take up to 100 Medium Game Animals (deer/pigs/etc) throughout the year in culling and crop damage prevention. I test and play with various cartridges and bullets for fun.

My list of preferred bullets I like and that have not failed me in effectively taking game are:

.224cal - 62gr TSX / 64gr GD / 64gr PowerPoint / 77gr SMK / 80gr A-Max
.243cal - 85gr HPBT-GK / 105gr A-Max
.257cal - 117gr SST / 115gr Berger HVLD
6.5mm - 140gr A-Max
7mm - 162gr A-Max
.308cal - 125gr SST / 150gr BT / 165gr BT / 165gr Tactical Bonded / 165gr HPBT-GK / 168gr A-Max / 208gr A-Max
.338cal - 200gr BST / 225gr DC / 285gr A-Max
.358cal - 158gr XTP / 180gr XTP / 200gr FTX / 200gr HDY RN / 250gr Interlock
.375 - 270gr HDY-PSP
10mm - 155gr HST / 165gr GD / 180gr HST / 180gr XTP
.423cal - 400gr RNSP-DG
.430cal - 240gr XTP / 325gr WFN-GC
.452 - 250gr XTP / 300gr WFN-GC / 350gr WFN-GC
.458 - 300gr HP / 500gr RNSP
.50cal - 440gr WFN-GC

I am probably forgetting some.

This is what I have/keep on my shelf that I?ve used and like. Some, I?ve used a lot. Some, I?ve used a little. But, all gave me the satisfactory results I look for in a bullet for medium gave.

There are others I have loaded but have not used yet. So, the list may grow. There are some I?ve used and disliked.

This is my list. It makes me happy. All are free to agree or disagree. But, they have worked for me. So, this is my list.
