that bullet's the one thing determines whether that hunt is a success or failure.
I'd say the bullet is about the least important "thing" that determines success.
Me, I'd go with a 160 Partition, 160 Accubond, 160 Speer Hot Core, 150 Ballistic Tip, 160 Sierra Game King, 154 Hdy, in that order.
I'd pick the one that shot best and rock on.
Though a sheep nut friend of mine uses a 139 Hdy from his 280 on Dall's year in and year out with boringly predictable results.
Good post Brad. Throw in honing your marksmanship and on game performance in any position and you just about got it covered. An extremely high BC bullet doesn't guarantee any Joe smuck to put a pill in the vitals of a big game animal at 600 yards. A very seasoned rifleman using old nosler partitions and a familiar rifle will do more good than an unpracticed Joe with a high BC bullet. Just sayin...
