The larger Precision Rifle bullets would also likely preform well at White speeds. IIRC they offer a fairly heavy 44cal that was originally intended for the Savage.

Barnes Expanders are by far my favorites in the Barnes lineup. The even have them in the XPB lineup. Nearly identical bullet, different name.

All of these have a similar price point as the BO but will perform better at lower MV and impact speeds.

Have you tried the 250gr Bloodline in you NULA? Im tinkering with the idea of trying them next year. Ive got a box i haven't tried yet.
i presume you are talking to me? no i haven't tried them. i really like heavy bullets that's why i'm so interested in the 300-400 gr originals or even something heavier. i see a lot of guy's talking about long shots and so on but most of the deer i shoot are very close within 50 yards i like getting close maybe it's the bow hunter in me? the deer i just shot on my hunt in december was a whopping 12 yards away shot her with a .504/465 gr no excuses bullet the blood trail looked like there was a massacre with no meat loss at all ! she did manage to get across the field to the tree line they always seem to do that !!
