8x57 Cast Bullet Weights?

What cast bullets have you used in 8x57 mm?
175 grain bullets appear the most common, but I've seen some 235 grain bullets as well.
What are the experiences, opinions, etc. for the cast bullets in the 8x57?

Wow!
Which do you find the best? In what kind of 8mm are you using them?
Is the 190 any better than the 170? What kind of ballistics are you achieving?

Just looked, no not the 190 have a 220 cast.
Using an M48a with commercial stock and scout scope.
Just using for plinking and practice, getting about 3-4 inch group at 100.
