Hollow Point, but only a 50 or 53 grain Barnes TSX. If you use soft point, pick a Winchester 64 grain Power Point or 60 Grain Nosler Partition. Save the exploding varmint bullets for varmints.
Your 1 in 12" twist limits you a bit, but it's better than the Remington 1 in 14" twist..

I've killed and seen alot of game killed with a .22 caliber centerfire with ballistic tips, remmy softpoints, gamekings and v-max......gameking is the best imo.
anything from turkeys, to deer and one aoudad (i do not recommend that one
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Game Kings are deadly in a 22-250 if you can place the shot correctly. Dropped several DRT at less than 150 yds.
Did not know they were considered varmint in those caliber. HPMK in larger caliber are a killer also and never had a problem.
