Try H 4831, 69 gr and 140 gr Sierra Pro Hunter. It's over max in the latest manuals but I have used it for over 40 years with tremendous success. Through and through from 25 to 350 yds. Also might try the 140 gr Nosler BT with 66 gr of Reloader 19. Duplicates the Remington 140 factory loading. Killed a Caribou in N. Quebec with this load. Never knew what hit it. Also for more penetration try the 140 gr Nosler Accubond. It's been quoted as being as "accurate as the Ballistic Tip and hits like the Partition. All of the game you have listed are relatively thin skinned game so all that I have listed will do the job quite satisfactorily. BTW, these are all in a Rem 700, 24" barrel, 1965 vintage. Last note, start low and work up.
