Default 17HMR yote Hunting, What bullet to use?

I plan on using a 17hmr for yote hunting i know its not a great gun for it but that what im going to use. I will only be going for skull shotsat 100yards give or take, i was wondering what bullet to use? the hollow points or the ballistic tips. the hollow point will give more penitration but they tend not to fragment on small game like gophers, but will the balistic tips be able the fully penitrait the skull of a yote? The 20 gr seem like a waist because at 20 yards they only have 2ftlbs more energy over the 17gr.
