i'm surprised noone has recommended the hornady sst. they're supposed tobe good at about any range. or so hornady says. i would like to try some in my 06 but haven't seen any.
I will never use the SST's again. Last year I shot a big buck at 80-90 yards (7MM Mauser) and the 140 gr bullet went through the 10 ring like a hot knife through butter....no expansion! Had to shoot the buck a second time....that one didn't expand either. This was a 250 pound animal. I do not trust the SST's. This year, I went back to Nosler BT's in my 7 Mag and the Sierra Game King in my '06. Regards, Rick.
