Bullet Weight for Deer at Medium Distances.
 

I just picked up a Knight Elite Disc rifle,and was told by the counter person to use the 405 Grain Power Belt' s.Isn' t this a little heavy,considering i might run into shot' s out to 100 yds,or a bit further.What Grain Bullets ,show Good Accuracy out of the Knight Rifles? Ide really like to lessen my trajectory a bit,with something lighter,BUT accurate. Thank' s!

many people shoot much lighter projectiles with great results on deer size game. I think you need to get some other projectiles and try them out in your rifle, and find one your gun likes and you are comfortable with, shooting at deer.

Personally, 80% of the time I shoot s 230 grain roundball out of a .54 caliber sidelock for deer. The other 20% I shoot a 300 grain conical which I make from a mold. Both projectiles will take deer down where they stand. Shot placement is the key thing as I am sure you are well aware. Good luck hunting, and have fun shooting the rifle.
