I have a new-to-me Savage 111 in 30-06 and am going to start reloading. I'm gong to a buddies house who has some very nice reloading equipment and he's going to show me how to reload, and we're going to play with some powder loads.

I want to start with a nice hunting bullet. I planned on using the old standby Core-lokt, but my other hunting buddy says he's had these break apart in the animal and ruin some meat. I believe he uses an old discontinued Nosler bullet.

Can you recommend a good bullet that will spread a bit, not break apart in the animal, and be accurate?

Thanks for any input!
