    Of those two, AR2206H. AR2208 too slow for such a light bullet.

    I'd probably use BM2.

    2206h will work fine as you don't want the BTs going too fast if your are using them on deer. I shot the 125 ABs @3000fps for a while (which were good) but found the BTs didn't penetrate well if going that speed.
