    168gr amax or eldm work really well. Shot hundreds of deer with them. Out past 500 yards with a 16" barrel no worries. They are only doing 2520 fps out of my rifle but I wouldn't want them going much faster. Pretty soft.
    Also run the 130gr speer hollow points which are ridiculously accurate. Not as good as the amax but still work.
