Tim; I've shot both deer and elk with the 100 gr. Nosler, as usual with partitions, they are a sure bet. Butttt, detesting cannelures or not, I've done the same ( elk and literally a couple tons of deer) with the 100 gr. flat base Hornady. For all I could tell, it worked as well as the Nosler...
Both got 39.0 gr. of IMR 4350 IIRC ( Check that first, I don't recall as correctly as I used to....)
