I really like the 168 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip it has a high .490 BC and has a heavier jacket than the 165 and 150 grain BT.

They will perform very well at 06 velocities and carry energy better than most 180s while shooting a bit flatter.

There is really no reason for an expensive bonded bullet when hunting deer with an 06. Save some money or get yourself more range time using the BT.
