The only BG I hunt is white tails and hogs...at ranges as close as a couple yards out to 200 yards...a little longer on rare occasions.

Pretty much any bullet in the 150 - 165 gr weight will work. I've had good success with Hornady 150 gr spire point, and Seirra 165 gr. BTHP.

I have pretty much settled on the 165 gr. Sierra BTHP. I use it with both 308 and 30-06. I have not been dissatisifed with its performance in ether chambering. It is curently my go-to bullet.
