I am thinking the cheap shots would be to thin for the White unless you change sabots... It probably comes with a 24 and I would think you will need a 12...

The cheap shot is a good target shooter - but I am not sure it will serve you as a deer shooter. I have very limited experiance with all lead bullets, but I am thinking at the velocity you will shooting them from your White they might blow on contact especially with a bone. I think for a pure lead bullet you will need to go heavier.

Somebody with more experiance than I make a comment. I have always been nder the impression shooting lead bullets heavier is better. The 240 would probably work great if you slowed it weight down like a lead ball but at 2000 fps I think it might go to heck on contact.... just thinking I do not know.... If the 240 would work it surely would be the answer for Washington hunters....
