I understand that a lot of this depends on the kind of hunting you encounter. And even the rifle you use.
So in this case I would use the most accurate, well constructed bullet possible. It would from my EXPERIENCE shooting the different bullets on my range be a Barnes MZ Expander. Almost every inline rifle I own shoot this bullet very accurate. The bullet is well constructed. The bullet is a very lethal bullet due to its construction. And can be effective from any where from 85 to 150 grains of powder, depending on the rifle. Some very close seconds, and they could be a first choice... the Parker Extreme 275 grain. Again, very accurate and easy to use. The Lehigh 250 grain. (I believe that is the weight of them). They were very accurate and seemed to devastate the target very well. Last was some 260 grain Nosler I shot. Very accurate and very hard hitting they seemed to be. But you have to understand.. I have not used them to kill the American White Tail Deer on my land. Every time I carry one of them fancy sabot bullet, I never see anything to shoot. But let me load a roundball.. and the deer come out of the woodwork.
Now let me throw a curve ball to all of you bullet affectionatos. The bullet Genie does not exist. And you have enough to purchase limited bullet supplies. Which means the bullet you pick could run out. So what are you going to stock up on?
For me the answer is easy since I have to have a bullet to hunt anything. It would be a conical bullet mold. And a roundball mold. Lead is always around and if necessary a person could use wheel weights. Then I would cast my own. Lubes can be made from a variety of things. So in reality, I would never run out of things to shoot.
the muzzleloader genie grants you an unlimited supply of just ONE bullet,everything from coyotes to grizzlies(not going africa here).What do you pick....................
