Default Still using the old rifle with the same bullets

Worked then; work now. Deer didn't start wearing new bullet proof gear.
Once had a buddy who was told by another, that a 7mm Mauser wouldn't work on deer. He thought he had squandered an investment.
Story short. Young daughter had a deer at the end of the season.

Never used premium bullets. Not that other bullets don't work. Found the old bullets always worked.
Used a favorite "swamp rifle." , a 35 Remington. Always used 200 gr bullets RN. Boring but always worked. Paid a little attention to accuracy.
Saved a little money going boring.
