The one your rifle shoots best. Buy some of all the well know, high quality big game bullets and shoot. Barnes, A-Frame, Trophy Bonded, etc, are all good bullets, you just need to fine one that your rifle likes.
I don't know of any 220 grain .30 cal bullets other than the plain jane round noses, although I think I've heard of something from Hornady. If you want to use a heavy bullet, try a 200 grain TSX.
I've been in a lot of moose kills and the common bullet is 180 gr. not the heavier 220. A solid well made 180 gr. will drop and moose with any type of solid hit. Good hunting to you!
well i think if u need a big bullet like that that holds up no matter what you put it through go with the collection of Barnes tsx and tipped bullet.
I used nothing but Hornady in by 338 Win Mag As for your overrated 30 cal powder burner, Nosler!
Nosler Partitions that is!
