I know the majority says dont use match bullets on game, but ive had awesome luck with the cheap PPU Match 75gr OTM bullets. Loaded with a hefty charge of IMR4895, 2375fps out of my RRA 7T M4 barrel. Ive taken countless Deer and hogs with it out to 425yds, mostly 200 and in tho. On hogs i use shots placed in the neck and high above the shoulder in the spine. Deer, i place them high in the neck or head shots, or for the vitals. Havent had a deer run, but i have had a few hogs run for about 50yds before expiring even with a good neck shot and bleeding, well bleeding like a stuck pig They shoot 1.125" groups all day and thats plenty good enough for a throw around rifle. If i didnt shoot so much id love to try some of the Barnes, but sometimes ill go thru almost 40rds in a night on the farm. Barnes wouldnt be too cost effective for me, im only in one loaded round for $0.18 at the moment. I had some pics of the damage to a hog, but i cant find them at the moment. It was a 225# sow that was running from my left to the right 75yds away and one round dropped her in her tracks, DRT. Not to mention it was 2am and raining pretty good.
