Default 30-30 Pistol Bullet Choice???

A few weeks ago i picked up a T/C Contender pistol chambered in 30-30 with a 14" barrel. After several range sessions I can get the gun to shoot 150gr - 165gr bullets fairly accurate with Hodgdon VARGET. I am a deer hunter and I am leaning towards the 125gr Nosler BT and 125gr Sierra spitzer prohunter. Im having a little trouble getting the 125gr bullets to group but I am going out tomorrow with some loads with H4895 and Hodgdon Benchmark (have several pounds). Hopefully I can get some accuracy out of the 125grainers. What do you guys think as far as for my bullet choice for deer hunting and occasional bear (125gr nosler bt and 125gr sierra prohunter) ?
