Thor Bullets without a doubt, IF your TC will shoot conicals.

Re: colorado- bullet choice
I have a TC as well. I didnt know that CO doesnt allow pellets or sabots. Those Thor bullets look nice and I really like that they will give you a sizing sample. The no pellets would be a problem for my TC mine hates loose powder I had a heck of a time trying to find a load that would work...
Good Luck on your mule deer hunt.

Re: colorado- bullet choice
These kinda look like the hornady FPB bullets.

Not even close!!
FPB is an lead alloy that can still fragment on bone and limit penetration.
The Thor bullet on the other hand is actually made by Barnes, but sold under the name Thor. Its 100% copper.
