Or substitute a Remington Bronze Point for the Sierra (if you can find some of those old component bullets).



Not that it matters much what bullet you use, deer are easy to kill, those bullets are just real "dramatic" about it.


Had some bad experiences with this bullet back in the '90's. In one year, my dad lost 4 deer, all shot with this bullet. He went back to the store-bought corelocks, and the problem went away.
About a year later, I was planning a hunting trip to S. America. I asked the outfitter what bullet he recommended and he gave me several to choose from, but he had also had bad results from the 130gr pro hunter and specifically recommended against the bullet.
Like I said, this all happened in the '90's.
