Default 17hmr yote hunting, which bullet??

I plan on using a 17hmr for yote hunting i know its not a great gun for it but that what im going to use. I will only be going for skull shots, i was wondering what bullet to use? the hollow points or the ballistic tips. the hollow point will give more penitration but they tend not to fragment on small game like gophers, but will the balistic tips be able the fully penitrait the skull of a yote?

Default RE: 17hmr yote hunting, which bullet??

the shots will be around 100 yards, 150 tops,and 20grs arnt a option, they have only 5ftlbs more energy at the muzzel and only 2ftlb more at 100 yards so there is no realy benifit of them.
