Stay away from hard cast for deer as they can punch a nice 44 cal hole through use on hogs or bear. Any soft point ,bonded hp or barnes x and you would will have a great deer thumper. Go to the hotter heavier rounds and you now have rifle that can reach out to 175 may be bit farther. You can use some of the black powder scopes and get to use the circles in them for 100 grain loads.
