Can’t go wrong with the 100gr Hornady. One load to kill anything at any reasonable distance. That’s what Dave McClunie used to kill all his Wapiti and many bull Tahr with.

It's a great feeling having some money to spend on your ideal rifle, but your first rifle won't be your ideal rifle for long. Put as much time as you can into learning how to shoot, maybe pick up a...
