So if your brand new to it, how do you pick ammo? Other than reading the posts here. The only info I'm gonna get is the magazines, and shows. Those guys are paid to use it and like it right?
Basically it's trial and error as far as accuracy is concerned. Velocity is the picky part.

Choosing the bullet type depends on what and how you hunt. Hunting bullets balance penetration and expansion. For most folks, erring on the side of expansion is a good thing.

But the thing to remember is that for medium sized game the target area is pretty darn big and just about any bullet that goes through the heart and lungs will kill an animal.
