What would you consider is the best 100 gr bullet for deer hunting. Both for short and long range shots? Looking for speed.

I like the E-Tip in a fast .25cal. Decent BC and sturdy construction.


Now with even more aplomb

Sierra 117 grain Pro Hunter in front of 70 grains of IMR 7828. IMHO it is a better weight for the fast 25's

100g partition shot 1/2" groups in my 257 Wea, 71.5g of R#22, fed 215.

I SHot a lot of deer with the 100g Hornady Flat base, 100g Speer BTSp is tougher than you would ever think. Killed everything with 100g nosler ballistic tips also.

Never shot any TTSX, but I bet they are fantastic.
