[QUOTE="Catbrain, post: 2944338, member: 127536"] What bullet is accepted as time tested for deer - so that it doesnt exit and waste energy-- and doesnt expand too fast like a varmint bullet.... would the plastic tipped sierra game king be considered near the top ? There was another sierra with a plastic tip (cant remember the model) but it was believed to be opening up a bit too fast-- more a varmint bullet. I would be shooting it either 308 or 30-06 handloads------ I have shot lots--- but new to hunting. I have a box of 165 grain barnes tripple shock I bought and loaded for hog-- but never got to test out. Im thinking they open up too slow for deer--and deer are less tough than a hog. Would they likely pass through ? Tim [/QUOTE]
