Default What Is Your Hunting Load?

What is your hunting load? Some of you may have many loads for different things... you may post the most used, favorite,or all of your loads.

I shoot a TC Renegade with a 1-48" twist. I am working of a roundball load for it. I think I want to shoot Goex or KIK. I have yet to decide. I plan to go after pronghorn with it. Pronghorn antelope are my favorite to hunt.
