Another vote for the Winchester Ballistic Silver Tips. They always seem to shoot well. Having said that, Hornady has really been cranking out some great factory ammo in the last couple years.

On Factory loads I have used Federal Premium Trophy Copper 80gr. in the 243win. Worked great on mule deer. Now I reload a Barnes 80gr. TTSX bullet and have had good luck with it.

Which powder are you using with the 80gr TTSX?

Nothing like a Remington model 700xcr.
