My son has been using a .243 the last couple of years to deer hunt. In looking for something that has light recoil and terminal effects, I've decided on one of two bullets:

- 85 gr. Sierra HPBT
- 100 gr. Remington Core-Lokt

Both of these will be hand loaded. What would you prefer for a shoulder shot or are either of them appropriate for a shoulder shot? I'm only looking at these two this year as this is what's loaded and ready to go.
