[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1549310, member: 10178"] The 65 Gr Sierra Game King will work but if you can find Speer 62 or 77 gr GOLD DOT bullets they will be AWESOME. Midway has some of the Speer 55 gr GOLD DOT. The GOLD DOT is a bonded bullet that expands quickly with 5 peddles BUT holds together and penetrates really well. I used the 120 gr Speer GOLD DOT in my 6.5 Grendel to shoot a deer this year and it did AWESOMELY. Shot was to center of the chest as the 100ish pound doe deer faced me at 111 yards. Bullet exhibited what looked like full expansion upon impact but held together and the hydrostatic effect was tremendous shredding the chest cavity. The bullet penetrated about 20 inches and exited out the belly with a thumb size hole. I have killed lots of deer with lots of different bullets and calibers and I have never seen what this GOLD DOT bullet does. [/QUOTE]
