Agree with the 100 gr Nosler partition. I broke the grandson in with a single shot 243. The first deer he shot was a small doe at 125 yds using a 100 gr sierra boat tail soft point. It had very little penetration, and I found the copper jacket under the skin down by the belly (initial impact was right behind the shouleder). I switched him to the nosler partitions, and the next three deer were all pass-throughs...but the range was between 90-100 yards. good luck with your decision.
