[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 733323, member: 48043"] I've been killing deer with my 300 win with 165 hornady for years and they are simply deadly. You will have a lower time of flight mid-range, and that is really important on killing running game. I don't want to wish/hope/pray that the thing doesn't turn or slow between the trigger pull and the pill landing on fur. Any shaving of the time of flight helps. 3300 fps is attainable with a 300 win with a 165; about 3100 with a 180. That's about a 5% shave off of your time of flite. You will also have a slightly longer max pbr with the 165. [/QUOTE]
