I've found that Remington's 180 grain round nose bullet performs excellent for downing a wide variety of animals at typical forest and foothill distances. The bullets open up fast like the speedier 150's but have the weight and momentum to penetrate deeply and break through bones. Moose and caribou have been toppled with this bullet fired from my .308 carbine. I feel that pointed soft nose bullets have their place too, but within about 225 yards or so, the round nose design is my first choice. - Sherwood
