There was quite a lot of trials of different bullets in many of these cartridges for both accuracy and killing effectiveness. Tried Accubond, Partition, Speer, Sierra, Barnes and Hornady in pretty much all of them as well as Woodleigh and Orxyz in the 7x57, the 375 and 460. As you can see Hornady is the top bullet in overall usage, followed by Barnes. So my answer is, it really does depend on the cartridge, velocity and how far you are shooting.
