76,

"The winchester Ballistic silvertip I was plan on using......"

Your gun, whichever one that ends up being; might not shoot them well !

Shoot a bunch of different "brands" of bullets that are properly constructed for your use and let your gun will tell you which ones it like best.


Yes, the links are for the purpose of listing brands/models at the entry level price range (and maybe a bit higher).


If I were chooing between those (and I wouldn't even consider the last two....I'd save my money and get the TC Venture or the Marlin).


1. Thompson Center Venture
2. Marlin X7S
3. Savage Axis
4. Mossberg 4x4

For what that's worth...............just my 2 cents.
