good evening,each rifle will have its prefered bullet/bullet weight.choices are many and varied buy a box of lead free <if you feel the need >and try them .barnes /rws etc etc. no one can tell you what your rifle will shoot the best but many will try!

Geco has worked well for a few SD members in the past

Barnes 130gr, Geco Green or RWS Evo Green all group.

Struggled to open and close the bolt when using Fox 130 and it didn’t group.

As said.... try different ones as each rifle likes different things... I realise there a substantial cost involved with doing g though...
As a ballpark... try the rws evo green as that has a reputation for being accurate in many rifles, it is in my tikka and a few others I've spoken to say the same....
Find what is most accurate and buy as many as you can of that ammo.... it will all kill deer so don't worry about what people will tell you about performance of this or that bullet..... pin the shoulders and you won't get many runners and don't worry about meat damage as its inevitable in some way shape or form with whatever bullet you are likely to use.

Hi Tom

The S20 in .308 is my first rifle so I'm no expert but.....the Barnes VOR-TX 130gr TTSX BT are grouping superbly on the range and knocking stuff over in the field! Only downside is the price....
