any recommendations for loads would be awesome. i'll be hunting in a heavily wooded area that has a lot of pipe lines and valleys. apparently shots won't be any farther than 70-100 yards away.
Buy three boxes of 180 grain and shoot them, practice will make more difference then which load.

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
