[QUOTE="358 Guy, post: 1808952, member: 60067"] For hunting purposes, I prefer the 140 gr. Nosler Partition as it works well both near and far. While its B.C. is a bit lower than some dedicated L.R. bullets, at 495 it still carries quite well at the longer ranges. While not a 140 gr., the excellent Barnes 129 gr. LRX is also a very reliable killer. I shoot both of these bullets in my 6.5x55 Swede rifles along with a 6.5 Remington Mag. and have never had any form of bullet failure. When trying to find the best all around bullet for near and far, you will probably find as I have, that certain compromises are inevitable. [/QUOTE]
