At 600 yards, what are the best and worst elk bullets.

[FreedomLoader]

I am pondering which bullet will be best for my Remington 8mm Magnum for a January elk hunt. Expected ranges are 400 to 800 yards. Bullets and approximate velocities I have on the shelf are Barnes 160 grain TTSX at 3450 fps, 180 grain GMX at 3275 fps, 200 grain Accubond at 3125 fps, 220 grain Sierra SBT at 3000 fps, or 220 grain A-Frame at 3000 fps. Due to mediocre ballistics on the A-Frame, it would probably be limited to 650 yards. What is your experience, good or bad, with these bullets? My rifle shoots sub 3/4 with all.

Of the choices you listed and the 800 yard 'max range' I concur with Dusty Noggin - Nosler Accubond
