thats like trying to figure out women. each ones different in what they like. First thing I'd do is figure out what twist rate the gun had to help narrow down bullet weight, most likley a 1/10 which means you can shoot about anything. It being a lite & assuming your primary target is whitetail, I'd try to find some thing in the 165gn range. A buddy has a savage weather warrior that likes the winchester supreme with the 180nosler ct silvertips. you might give those a try.

I have always shot my own handloads but Hornady and Nosler factory ammo is really good stuff get some and see how each shoots in your rifle. Then and only then can you say what will work well leaving your barrel.
