[QUOTE="med358-boise, post: 2602848, member: 123832"] The only bullet in your list I would shy aa=way from is the 168 Berger it has the least penetration capability. They are designed to penetrate a limited amount and then fragment. IMO, penetration is the most important attribute. Of the bullets you listed the Swift Sirocco would me my first choice unless it shoots measurably worst. Don't know where he will be hunting but get him too practice and not from the bench. Many times prone is not an option in elk country so get him practicing shooting from sitting or kneeling from sticks with his strong side elbow suppoerted by his day pack. [/QUOTE]
