I used 120 gr Nosler BT on two deer and was very pleased.  Deer dropped in place. :eek:  :shock:  :-D

Ditto on the 120 gr. Nosler ballistic tips. Use them in a Super 14 and 21" carbine.

Only bullet I've used is the Sierra 130 SSSP. Best I recall on two deer. Both down on the spot. No blood trail needed.

8 deer in the last 3 yrs.  Farthest traveled after hit was about 25 ft. on one.  The rest were down in their tracks.  Hornady 139gr. SP
