Just to repeat what others have said down loading is a good idea for hot climates. I worked up a max load for the 250 gr. Barnes with R15 and then loaded some 260 BT with the same load. They shot fine in cool weather but would be hard to extract in 90 degree heat. Once there was published data available for the now 260 gr. Accubond I found out I was three grains over Noslers max load. Same issue with 250 gr. Kodiaks they took the same max load as the Nosler not the Berger.
The Accubond or the Partition both are excellent for Leopard as the expand easily. The Ballistic tip and ABLR also would qualify.
"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
