[QUOTE="orwapitihunter, post: 54961, member: 1939"] Nice looking gun Chris. You might try the 180 and 200gr Nosler Ballistic tips. A few years back I used a 200 to take a bull elk at 402yrds with a 338WM. It managed to penetrate from the kidney area to the hide on the far shoulder and retained about 70% of it's weight. Should work good for deer. I also fired a few 180s out of an ultra mag recently and was happy with their accuracy. If you ever try jungle hunting for elk I would recommend a tougher heavier bullet.
