[Dan(9698)]

For a deer, 150 grain is plenty.

It shoots flatter with a lighter bullet and doesn’t kick as hard.

Be sure to use the same bullets for hunting as you used to sight the gun in at the range.

[troy McClure]

If you are going after mountian lion or other critter that you need to rid the homestead of, use a sabot round.

The sabot will leave the bullet without rifling marks and if the Fish and Game finds the remains, they won't be able to know what rifle it came from.
