I'm with Bronko. Hornady XTPs in 250 grain, or (my favorite) 300 grain will do everything that needs doing on a whitetail and generally produces a good blood trail. Regardless of bullet, it's not uncommon for a well hit deer to cover twenty yards before the blood trail starts.

By the way, I've recommended this post be moved from the Reference Forum to the regular Black Powder Forum.

Another by-the-way, welcome to the forum Kuhle. Good stuff here.
