Default RE: what bullet do u use

ORIGINAL: Nimrodder

I use pure lead conicals in my muzzy's. They expand well and I have never recovered one. The blood trails are short and easy to follow.

In my Knights I use No Excuse 460gr conical
In my Whites I use Bats 496gr Trashcan or Bullshop 460gr. I even have a 620gr Bullshop for these rifles. I don't use the 620's for hunting.
In my Lyman GPH I use the Bullshop 460gr bullet.

I have also used the Buffalo Bullet SSB in 375grains (saboted bullet). 3 out of 5 deer dropped on the spot the other 2 did not go far. Recovered 3 of the bullets. They did fragment quite abit, but hey they worked pretty darn good IMO.
Your not shooting them about 1900 to 2000 fps, I will be your shooting them 1200. "Big and Slow is the way to do" is what Bryce Towsley says. Can't disagree, if they don't fragment and penetrate deeply. Chap
