Long Range Deer Bullet ??

[JR]

Does anyone make a heavy long range deer bullet that can be used in a 1x8" twist barrel? I have tried the 90 grain Swift Scirocco and the 90 & 95 grain Nosler's however they were not very accurate. The 100 grain Sierra GameKing is very accurate and accounted for a very nice Whitetail last fall @ 239 yards. I was wondering if there are any custom bullets makes that make heavier hunting bullets intended for the 1x8" twist?

Thanks for your help, Jay

My experience with the premium bullets and deer is you do not need them with the moderate velocities of the 6mmBR. If the Sierra's shoot in your gun, they should work great out to 300 or so yards.

105 gr. Hornady A-Max's shoot well out of an eight twist. I have shot deer with A-Max's in 3 different cartridges,6 BR IMP with 105's, 6.5 x 284 with 140's, and .308 with 178's) and they all are BAD on a deer.
