Current Favorite Hunting Bullet per Cartridge

I have shot Partitions in everything for quite a spell as a hunting bullet. When used strictly to confirm zero and hunting, a box of 50 might last years, so I don’t consider them expensive in the grand scheme of things.

Ballistic tips or interlock bullets are my normal practice loads.
 
Currently:
5.56 for varmints: 55 gr Sierra HP
.243 Win: 85 gr Sierra Gameking
.308s: 165 gr Sierra HP Gamekings, 130 gr Barnes TTSX, and 175 gr Sierra Matchkings for targets
.300 Win Mag (elk- 180 gr AB)
.45-70: 300 gr Hammers

For the 6.5 PRC in my future with the 6.5 Airlock gravity: 125 gr CE Lazers i got recently with the Black Friday sale; and probably 156 gr Bergers

And after i eventually run out of gamekings, i'll get some TMKs for the .308s
 
6.5 cm 143 eldx
308 150 grain ballistic tips
223 55 grain pointed soft point in several different rifles
300 blackout 150 grain fusions
30-06 150 grain winchester power points are what is in the rifle at the moment.


I'm picking up an encore with 25-06 and 22-250 barrels this week, hopefully, so we'll see what they like.
