To the OP, a lot of folks have given you their personal insights and experiences and all are valuable. I'm going to take a different direction.

What brand/weight bullet does your gun like? Knowing that SSTs, SGKs, Silvertips, Power Points, etc work in their rifles does not translate into what will work in yours.

I'm not talking about what will work from a terminal ballistic perspective since in general your gun won't have an impact on that. I'm talking about what your gun shoots well. Find out what hunting style bullet your gun will shoot respectible groups with and practice with it. Then go hunt.

Knowing that Nosler Partitions are a great hunting bullet doesn't mean beans if it won't group them reasonably. Since we are talking deer and not a larger, or hardier animal, the bullet selection is much more open.
