Rocky and cooper are correct of course. Deer under ideal circumstances are not hard to kill. Almost any varmint or target bullet .22 cal. and up will work, i know becaues i have taken deer with most of them. BUT if you are hunting them and have to shoot without a rest or if you have been running, or have to hurry the shot, well then we are talking less than an ideal situation here. If you limit yourself to only 100-200 yard broadside shots from a rest and hit the kill zone 100% of the time, they will work. Now if you can`t do that i would suggest you shoot 300 times at coyotes and targets, because what most deer hunters lack is practice, and when deer season arrives you will have had plenty of that!
