I use 60 gr Nosler Partition softpoints tried and true and use AA 2520 to start them at 2500 fps from a 10.5" barrel. They'll still expand at 200m. That's all that's required. At longer ranges an instant stop is not needed, unless you plan to ride a motorcycle out to the "hittee" at top speed and scalp him, or something like that. He'll not be able to hit you from that range and he'll bleed out long before he can get close enough to be a concern.
