If you would get your head out of your butt you would see in my earlier post that I said any bullet in the 240-300 grain range would work. And why did I select a bullet range rather than one particular bullet? Because some rifles shoot the lighter bullets and some shoot the heavier ones. And If a rifle shoot a 300 gr bullet better than a 250 gr bullet then why not shoot the heavier one. And don't tell me about tracking deer. I've been hunting, including archery and muzzledloader, for over 45 years. And I've tracked literally hunderds of deer (and a few bear) with little or no blood trail shot by myself or a friend, or even someone asking for help and except for a couple of occasions always found the animal. Even if it meant waiting and tracking all the next day.
