I have tried the 6.5 120gn match bullets and they were bleeding awful at 600yds.
If you are okay with 5 moa at 100 yards any ppu/s&b bullet will be fine.
Similarly if you are shooting fig 11 on an etr range.
I much prefer to use Lapua scenars bought in 1k boxes.
69 scenars worked out about £28 a 100 and 155 scenars about £36 a 100.
But I do shoot 600/800/900/1000 regularly so expect some success.
The old mantra of " quality bullet through a quality barrel " very much holds true for me!
true, but a lot of folk are not keen on the scenars, due to inconsistancy, dont know, just bought 200 to try, I shoot PPU to 1000, but that is with iron sights and to be honest, I doubt if any other bullet would improve my performance
