Long Path and Robert sum things up very well, its placement, placement, placement. But sometimes things just don't go the way we plan. I hate it when it happens[and it sure sounds like you do to], but that experience just makes us try harder, and become better hunters/shooters.
On to your bullet question. I tried the starfire 30/30 load when it came out. I never got any decent accuracy out of the 3 30/30's in the safe with that load. I've had great accuracy and game performance results with the FEDERAL PREMIUM load using 170gr. NOSLER PARTITIONS. I'm sticking with that load for now,...and happy about it.
