[QUOTE="El Lobo, post: 647037, member: 25019"] With all due respect to those who love those exotic and expensive bullets, I would start with the cheapest box of 100 grain soft points you can find, probably Remington Core-Lokts or Federal Power-Shoks. See how they group in your son's rifle. If they group okay, you are done. I think you might be pleasantly surprised. My little .243 Remington 700 ADL loves 100 grain Core-Lokts and they kill deer just as dead as the more expensive stuff. I reload the Remington cases with more 100 grain Core-Lokts, 39 grains of H4350 and Federal primers. Maybe not quite as much zip as the factory load, but the deer don't seem to notice any difference in velocity. Good luck and good hunting to you and your son. [/QUOTE]
