Here lately i have been shooting too much; almost every day. The bullet i have been shooting a lot is the 270g Gold Dot. I choose to shoot this bullet for a couple of reasons. First, it was excellent this last season when it came to killing deer. Seven deer in 2 states fell to this bullet. I even witnessed lung shot deer fall on the spot, instead of running 75 yard or so. Second, it has been quite inexpensive to shoot. They cost me $14.60 for 50 bullet, and $5.39 for 50 sabot.

I have nothing against paying more for a better product, but in this case, more isn't better, nor necessary.
