Salar, If I were you, I would add the Nosler 300gr BT on that list. I've been getting ridiculous accuracy from them out of the SML but I do full size them. I haven't as of yet tried smooth bore sizing them out of it. They do an excellent job on Caribou at 200 yards and out of my SML they print well within 5 inches at 300 yards. For shots under 200 yards I would also recommend Lehigh 220gr. Those shot very well out to 200 but at 250 they started to open up the groups pretty far. I've become a fan of full sizing but I have been researching a lot on this very subject and have found a lot of folks get by quite well with smooth sizing for proper land riding bullets. Since no bullet manufacturers seem to be able to have perfect conformity, a good sizing die is an essential tool for sabotless shooting. Either full form or smooth.
