Best/Favorite Hunting Bullet?

What is the OB's favorite or preferred hunting bullet? Not asking for specific caliber or cartridge, just the projectile. And worst/least preferred bullets as well...

I really like Federal Fusion.

Depends on the shot I plan to take really, and I have certain guns that like certain bullets.

I have been using the Federal Fusion for years, in my .270 and the .243 for the kids. Have not lost a deer yet (knock on wood).

Was always my go to. I had a hard time finding it a couple of years ago during one of the ammo runs and switched to Winchester power points. They kill too...

Accubonds and there isn't even a close second in my book

Hornday SST 250gr for the muzzleloader.
Still figuring out the rifle. 1 for 1 using Winchester XP ballistic tip in the 55 year old 30-06, haven't hunted yet with new rifle.

Depends on what I'm hunting; for tough animals like Elk or when long range shots at deer are a possibility I like Nosler Acubonds. Nosler Partitions are stout but I have never gotten much in the way of accuracy out of them.
For deer at normal ranges a basic cup-and-core bullet like Hornady Interlock or Speer HotCore is what I go to.
