I shoot Remington 150 Gr core locked, tried all of the major brands / bullet weights and that one shot the best in my gun - right at 1 inch at 100 yds.  I shoot this load in my 14 inch super 14 Contender, took 1 deer with it last year - ran about 50 yds and dropped dead - heart / lung shot quartering away. :D
