I own a RAP in 6.5 creed. It shoots MOA with every hunting load I've put through it. I want to transition away from the ELD-X precision hunter as it did me dirty at close range (150). What is the best factory ammunition for deer and black bear out to 500 and as close as 20 yards? Would you use one cartridge for black bear, one for whitetail and another for mule deer? Three different rounds for close, mid and long range? Mono metal Barnes? Bergers? ELD-M? I've heard and read all kinds of sponsored opinions. I'm beginning to doubt the claims of "long range performance without sacrificing short range ballistics." What do you all have to say on the subject? Thanks in advance.
