I'd try a couple of different brands and bullet weights. It may shoot some well, and others not so well. Every gun has it's own particular preferences, and you have to experiment a little to find your guns preferences.

i will be using it probably for deer and coyote and was wanting to settle for one bullet weight for both so that i wont have to reline for different hunts.
