Just wondering what bullet you guys have found that works best on deer in the 256 Falcon using the load data from Gary's manual?
I used the Sierra 90gr Gameking on hogs.

In both the .25 Raptor and the Falcon. Also use the Accubond in the Falcon and the 257GNR. Have shot squirrels, hogs, one doe and one cow elk with the 90gr Sierra. All one shot kills
100 grn Nosler BT. My 25-35 Ackley 14" pushes them....

2800+ fps. Very good on thin skinned critters.
Beau used a Hornady 90 gr GMX for his one

He also shot a smaller deer with the 90gr GMX. Beau and I have had goood results with the 100gr Sierra on coyotes, Javelina and other small animals. For many years I used a 25-06 rifle and killed a lot of deer with the Sierra 117gr BT and and a few with the 100 gr Sierra BT. In the 256 Falcon I would use the 100gr Sierra. Accurate loads in our 256 Falcons have been easy to work up.
Nice helpful info
