I agree with both of these, and I believe the best way to a DRT shot is a light, tough bullet at high velocity. I'm about to do some experimenting this coming season with 80 gr Barnes TSX's in a .25-06 and 6mm rem. The .224 TSX bullets seem to be making some impressive kills as well, if my .220 swift had a little faster twist rate I'd be loading them for it and taking it deer hunting.
