Go with a 180 gr Hornaday SP or the Speer Version. That is were I would go with a 300 Winchester. Those two bullets worked well for the few Deer I shot with a 300 Weatherby may moons ago. I myself will be moving to Alabama next month if the job I am up for comes thru. I think either a 6.5 x 55 or 7 x 57 will be more than enough gun for Alabama White Tails. I have a 338 a 7mm RM and 300 WSM. My guess a 250-3000 would be just what the doctor ordered.
