Good cheap 6.5mm bullet?

Hey guys. I took my 6.5x55 out bunny bashing yesterday. It doesn't get used all that much for its intended purpose so I just wanted to get the cobwebs out of the barrel! Trouble is I'm firing 130grn Barnes TSX, which are a little steeply priced for Vermin! I'm thinking I should try some 140grn A-max for plinking, but are there any others I'm missing that I should try? I'd like them to be OK for Deer ideally, just in case I see one when I'm not intending to shoot one.

Ive tried some 120grn speer hot core's and some 140grn hornady sst's both (were) under £20/100 not tested on deer yet but the speer is definitely more accurate on paper.

 

I'm going to try some sierra gamekings or prohunters if i can get hold of some.
