Most bullets will work most of the time.

If you want deep penetration, go heavy. Stouter bullets also help in that regard. My choices, depending on the rifle are Barnes TTSX/LRX and Nosler AccuBond/AccuBond LR.I also use Swift A-FRame and Scirocco and the no-linger available North Fork bullets.

The new Federal Terminal Ascent have been accurate in my handloads (.280 Rem and 7mm RM) and I would use them this year if I can find more as components. They offer the best of everything I like about big game bullets - high B.C., poly tip to help B.C.and initiate expansion, bonded core (front half), mono metal rear.
