[QUOTE="magna19, post: 3298355, member: 24646"] That is the reason a lot of people go to copper bullet in case they run into the bruiser 200+ lbs massive 21 pointer that most hunters hope they run into. If you get an opportunity at one then a bullet able to get to vitals at all angles is a plus. But the odds are Im going to shoot the first decent sized young deer I see and do my best to get a shot to have excellent eating at the table. That being said if I only had one load to use on deer for all the areas and types of deer hunting over the years it would be .284 with Berger 168 Classic Hunter @ 3030 fps. It will get to vitals at all angles, at all practical hunting ranges, expand better than copper bullets on broadside double lung shots. Luckily that is not the case and using a different firearm/caliber each year is the deer hunting stage I've been in last several years. [/QUOTE]
