Don't think you'd go wrong with any of the name brand cup and core bullets in 150-180 gr weight for whitetail. I lean hard toward the Hornady #3031 myself but have also had good luck with all the others I've tried. The key, as always, is to put the bullet where it's supposed to go! If we had larger game in Alabama, I would look into the premium bullets, but they just aren't necessary for deer.
