    I use 87 gn Hornady SP with 43.6 gn 2209 for everything from hares to goats and large reds. Mind you I do not shoot at anything over 150 meters away.

    I have had good success with the 90 grain speer hotcor 44.0 grains 2209, have got some 87 grain hornady softpoint to load up and test when I run out of the speers. Have loaded up hdy 95g sst but the speers are more accurate. Have only tested on goats so far.
