My sons rifle shoots 105 gr sierra game kings very well. Also was very effective on his buck.

I know I'm a cheapskate but I've always shot 105 gr Hornaday Interlocs. Not trendy or spendy but they've never let me down.

Berger 95gr hunting vld worked very well in my factory twist barrels and killed everything I’ve shot with them.  If you have a 8.5” twist or faster go with the 105’s.   With the 105’s I’ve got 1000 ft/lbs at 700 yards
May not get an exit but that dosent matter if the deer drops right there

It pretty much boils down to; Do you want to get away from a lead bullet or not?
You'll never get a Big'un if you keep shooting Little'un's.
