Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada Do you use a premium bullet for deer?

For deer I shoot a 257Roberts with 100gr Hornadys and pretty much nothing else for the last ten yrs.

I won't be needing anything for bear protection, won't have a tag for black bear or moose, ranges will be fairly short, velocity will be modest. C&C bullets will work just fine under these circumstances in any std chambering.

If I lived where there was large bears who might want to eat me or where a very high velocity may be needed to flatten out long ranges, I may reconsider and shoot a TSX or Partition for deer.

Lots of variables as seen with the answers thus far.
