    I used a lot of 140 amax and they were great (6.5x55). ELDM are the modern version.
    Folks might think they are too soft but that isn't the case. Used them out to 350 yards or so. Killed well - remembering that kills at the 6.5x55 sort of velocities (2700-2800 fps) can be a bit slow at longer ranges.

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
