well I think one just needs to match the bullet construction to the job.
Here is a list offf the top of my head from soft softs [ie expanders] to solids. I don't mention Hawk bullets [which look very interesting] because I am not sure where to place them exactly. different categories perhaps.
If someone shot an elk with a 375/300FMJ in the lungs would they expect it to run a ways?
To me the fails safe is like a flat tip solid or just a bit less penetration.
Ballistic tips [Varmint], then V max, Ballistic tip [big game], HP varmint bullets
in the middle you have: Core Locks, Interlocks, Speer's normal bullets, and a bit tougher Speer's Grandslams
Then premium: Noslers, Swifts, Trophy Bonded
Super Premium: X bullets, Fail Safes
Solids: Hornady FMJ, Woodleigh FMJ, then IMHO a step up Trophy Bonded Sledgehammers, and then perhaps the best solid Speer AGS-Solids
