I'm using a .260 Rem for whitetail and I like the bonded core & ballistic tip. (Swift Scirocco II is my latest favorite). With proper shot placement about any bullet designed for hunting will be fine. It's the marginal shots we hope never occur that, it is hoped, a more premium bullet which may be overkill for a 200 yard broadside may perform better than the shooter if it doesn't quite go to plan.
Pick a bullet designed to expand well at the velocity you expect it to be travelling at the range you plan to shoot; that your rifle shoots with accuracy.
