Have not shot it yet !!
I'm thinking of going home to Pa. this deer season to hunt with my life long friend at his camp like in our younger days.
Been about 14 years since I've been hunting at home.
(From Pa., always from Pa.)
Back in the day, and my buddy, to this day, we used 180 gr round nose bullets. He still loads them for his Amish Machine gun.
My last buck was with a round nose.
Since I'm starting from scratch, should I pick a general purpose bullet and hunt there, and here in the west for all manner of big game, or just load something for under 100 yard Pa. white tails?
What bullets ??


Since you included "the west and all manners of game", I'd suggest 180gr Nosler Accubond or Partition.

That will handle anything that happens to fall under your crosshairs.
