Hornady leverevolution is the way to go. It's a pointed boattail 160 grain bullet travelling at 2400 fps, that's faster than most 150 grain round nose bullets. The Hornady guy who I talked to told me that the rubber tip really helps with expansion. When it hits an animal the rubber expands outward as it gets squished; Hornady was just trying to develop a pointed bullet for tube magazines but they also invented a bullet with some of the most reliable expansion on the market. They claim that you'll get a complete mushroom at 300 yards on a deer.
