The one that goes right thru his heart.........
I use everything from a 95 grain to a 100 grain in .243 and it tips over everything I shoot at.......big and small..........except when i miss......

any of the 95 to 100 grainers that your gun will shoot good, both of mine love the cheap gray box winchester 100 grain but the deer sure dont like em

I used the 100gr. Winchester Power Max hollow points. I killed 3 deer with them this year. 2 bang-flops and 1 ran about 50-60 yards. All 3 had exit holes about the size of a quarter and the one that ran left a real good blood trail.
