Nosler BT/PT/AB depending on the gun, Hornady IL's a close second

99% of my hunting is deer with standard calibers. That says Interlocks to me.

If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Interlocks and partitions and sometimes sierra gameking spbt's....However, I just ordered 250 winchester powerpoints for my .308's so we'll see how those do. Hoping my 300 wsm likes them....
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Accubonds have been my favorite. This year though, I am trying out the TTSX in my 243 AI.

Accubonds and interbonds for big game.
Ballistic tips and vmax for smaller stuff.

For me the critter matters. Deer drop easily so I use the Hornady IL most often. For the bigger critters it is a mix of the X, TSX, Partiton and, most recently, the Accubond. No regrets either which way. The only manufacturer's bullet I have never shot is Sierra.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

Barnes followed by interlocks.
Whatever a 7x57 can do a 270 can do better.
True fair chase is you in the woods buttnaked with nothing but your finger nails and teeth.
If you'e fixin' to put a hole in something, make it a hole to remember.

More often than not it ends up being Hornady Interlocks, but not really by design. Usually they end up on top of the heap in a price/design/accuracy comparison when used in slightly uncommon cartridges like 8x57mm, 35 Remington, 444 Marlin etc.

I've killed most of my deer with Remington Core-Lokts. I didn't realize that I was living in the Stone Age until I found this website.

Nosler Partitions. They've always worked.

Used Speer Deep Shocks for a bunch of years. I now have got a good supply of Nosler Partition Golds I'll using for awhile.
