Roundball
Conicals
XTPs 300 grain
Scorpion 260 grain funnel nose
Powerbelt 295 grain

and that list might be totally different next year. Good question there..

Very true about different areas using different bullets. I don't know of anyone using PRB for example- even the guys with traditional rifles tend to use Powerbelts or XTPs. I'd estimate that locally about 80% of the hunters use PB's, XTP's or SST/Shockwaves.
