It all depends on what bullet that rifle likes, first of all. My daughter has a Rossi Youth-Model single-shot that shoots the "grey box" winchesters in 100 grns, really well. But she has a new rifle now an Interarms Mark X (.243) that we have yet to fire, that I'm working up some 95 grn Nosler Ballistic tips, with IMR4350. After we get the powder weight close to what we like we'll try the 100 gr Partitions maybe. The Rossi is 1-10 rifling, and so is the Mauser.

Mine did OK with the 4350 but outstanding with 4831SC and the 90grn BT. Dime sized groups even considering the scope I have on it has thicker crosshairs for low light situations. Varget under the 70grn BTs.

OP any of those bullets will do fine for smaller deer and even decent size deer. Its all about what the gun shoots best and proper shot placement on your part.
