    It’s really a matter of trying some different ammo to see if it groups in your rifle. Federal Fusion, Hornady whitetail, or any other middle of the road soft points of 150gr-165gr are worth a try. I’ve used Hornady superformance 150sst a lot but I’m currently using Precision Hunter. This is very high quality ammo that will group well in most rifles but it ain’t cheap. Shot my first animal with this stuff last weekend, and while a yearling red at 200yd isn’t much of a test, it certainly did the business
