Couldn't help but LMAO when I read that
Anyways, I started centerfire shooting with factory ammunition. Pretty much remington core lokts. They shot pretty decent and never left me needing more for my abilities at the time in the deer field. However, the factory ammo days are over which led to a nasty habit of reloading. BTW I hunt mostly archery and ML but do shoot a fair amount of centerfire.
Sometimes I just shoot a bullet because I got a great deal on the box. But mostly I shoot hornady bullets because they are cost effective and just good stuff. Deer are way easy to kill, so I worry less about the bullet and more about how good it shoots. I do have some Barnes X bullets waiting for elk though.
