You don't need a bonded or mono bullet at Creed velocities but they would work well. If I was working up new loads I would forego R17 and try R16 first. They are similar but R16 is bulkier so you could run out of room before equaling R17 but if close the stability of 16 over 17 is worth it.

"When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred." Niccolo Machiavelli
