I've never used a bonded bullet before, and every cup-and-core bullet I've ever used on deer has done the job just fine. I'm getting set up to reload for .308 Winchester and I'm looking at different bullets. Bonded bullets are nearly the same price as cup-and-core. The deer I hunt are relatively small. A massive buck would be around 175-200 pounds while a typical deer would be around 100-125 pounds. I try to avoid bone, but ultimately the deer gets shot in the deer if need be. Should I go for the bonded or the cup-and-core bullet?
