I have tried Barnes, Nosler E-Tip and Federal Trophy Copper. The Trophy Cooper is actually a Nosler E-Tip that Federal cuts grooves in.
I took a cow elk with the 140gr Trophy Copper in 7mm-08, and the exit wound was double that of the entrance.
Unfortunately, hand loading the E-Tips has been frustrating. I have tried loading E-Tips in 7mm-08, 270, and 308 and have yet to get anything to group. I gave up and have been loading Barnes.
I took a Mule deer and cow elk last year with 150 gr TTSX out of the 308.
