What's your choice for a bonded bullet for a 30 caliber?

The Speer 190gr Impacts are shooting well in my 300 WSM. No animals yet but I don’t foresee any issues. The factory Norma 180gr Bondstrikes shoot well also.

Norma Oryx is my favorite these days.

Not the best example I know, but I shot a 200 pound buck at about 10 feet with a .338 win mag 230gr oryx. The bullet went through both shoulders and there wasn't a shred of copper or lead anywhere I could find. Nice pretty exit. I was a little surprised by that since that was over 2700fps impact velocity and all the bone you can find in the front half of a whitetail. Very DRT. Also shot a small (70ish pound tender delicious sized) doe at 250 yards. Hit one rib going out and the bullet still had opened up a little in the chest cavity. Fair damage, chunks of lungs all over the place, of course DRT.
