RE: BULLETS
BIG T28
If you are looking for one of the less expensive bullets that might work well for you, I would suggest you take a hard look @ a Speer Gold Dot - either the .452/250 grain or the .452/300 grain.
The 250 is an outstanding bullet for whitetail and can be easily shot to 175 yards without any sight adjustments. The 300 grain is really a great bullet and can be shoot to 200 yards. My only hestitation is the 10 to 25 yard shot where it MIGHT not open as fast as the 250....
When hunting whitetail in my ciuntry I would easily select the 250 grain, with it's deep HP it opens quickly and because it is bonded it stays together and drives all the way through the animal.
If you are looking to move to what they call a 'premium' (because they cost a lot more) my choice has traditionally been a Nosler Partition .451/260 grain... it is deadly really deadly... HOWEVER, I may change may choise after this years deer season. I am trying a new bullet this one of the new Lehighs - they are accurate... and the reports of their terminal performance are really over the top - just do not know myself from first hand information...
Hey! welcome to the forum - it is a great place to hang out...
