Best bullet on hand for whitetail deer with a grendel

[keystone183]

I have killed countless deer with the 123eldm, and the amax before it out of 12.5" barrels. I use that bullet because 95% of them i shoot in the neck, and need something that fragments quickly and dumps energy. The SST does not do that, at least in my experience in that length barrel. The few that have been body shots have almost all been very effective as well. Most have been pass through, or near pass thru. Most distances on all shots have been under 150 yards.

This is to say nothing of the scores of pigs i have taken with same combo. This has been on all manner of shots and sizes. Rarely does one get out of sight that has been hit with a well placed (not on the run or thu heavy brush) shot.

Just my .02!
