    HRBC or XTP, both will absolutely. Just know your rifle, your load and your ability for shot placement to whatever you consider your max effective range. For me these are 100m nominal loads. Prefer 50m, if I had good conditions and a rest maybe 150m. I have been using a drill to make a shallow broad cup in the flat point of the HRBC 240gn in my 44-40 and it makes no appreciable diff to 50m groups. Have not tested them in the field yet but expect them to be very effective indeed.
