I again must add that one of the criteria in the OP was "cape damage." I have seen a lot of animals killed with just about all the bullets mentioned so far on this thread, and of them the Barnes TSX and Nosler Partition normally leave the smallest hole on exit, and between those the Partition's is usually smaller, usually about caliber-size.
The bullets that do the most damage are the "target" style bullets, with fist-sized holes common, especially on closer-range shots. AccuBonds are somewhere in between, because their mushroom is typically wider than that of Partitions.
