+1 on the 129 SST.
I've taken 5x whitetail with 129 SST and 1x whitetail with 115 Berger (AA)...the SST held up much better, with less ruined meat. The Berger entry was base of neck (quartering shot) and it blew out the opposite shoulder. The SST all had excellent expansion and held together. Both bullets performed as they were designed.
I have no experience with the Nosler.
Stokes...nice video! I think I'll stick with 129 SST for elk after seeing that.
