re: Reloading question 130 grain vs. 150 grain

The 130 is very good for deer here in Louisiana. It is all about the placement of the shot. I been using this same round for many years. For the best placement of the shot, I put the round mid section high just right under the backstrap. This will drop the deer in its tracks by breaking the backbone every time! No tracking or having to look for the deer. The biggest point of this shot and round is that you do not waste any meat what so ever!

I have killed over 100 deer with Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets and lost exactly 1. I have used them in 243, 6.5 mm, 270, 7mm Mag and 30/06. They work very well indeed for deer.
regarding the 130 vs 150, if you look at the external ballistics , ie trajectory, you will notice very little difference to 300 yards.
The real key is which one will your rifle shoot the best. Experiment with both, pick the one that your rifle likes the best, and then stick with it. The deer will not care either way.
