One of the reasons I asked this question was that 2 years I hit a nice Buck coming to a rattle bag and up his horn line. About a 30 yard circle surrounded with Ceaders. I was on the ground and here he came in a dead walk. when he came out all I saw was horns and he was looking straight ahead. Had my old Savage with the 154gr RN Hornady and led him. Hit him in the big joint below shoulder and passed with a whole the size of a silver dollar, not like I've seen 30-06's do. Got him back to the house and the whole deer was like jelly. Blood shot. Thats why I was looking for smaller grains or quicker opening bullets. I got a TC Pro Hunter and thought a 28 inch 1n9twist barrel would love these new style bullets. A-Max,Interbond's,Silver Tips,Boat Tails HDY,Speer,Nosler,Sierras do not do good in this gun. However 115gr Speer HP'S are tack drivers and the last of all these I tried was the last 15 154gr RN and dangit this gun drills these things at 2875FPS. Why does this gun like these types bullets. My Savage loves the noslers 150 and 120 BTs and Speer 160 BTSP. Neither like the interbonds. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
