[QUOTE="sambo3006, post: 314413, member: 2740"] Killed my first deer with a Hornady 100 gr BTSP from a 6 mm Rem. Out of an sporter weight rifle, I would say that it would kill whitetails as far away as you could accurately place your first shot. Next time I hunt with mine, I will probably go with Nosler Partitions. One of my good friends killed a big farm country doe with a 243 and the same Hornady 100 gr that I used. He shot her facing almost square on right in the brisket. The bullet blew up and only fragments of bullet and bone penetrated the rib cage. Definitely killed her but I would want a tougher bullet next time. Maybe even a Barnes TSX. BT's would work fine behind the shoulder, though. [/QUOTE]
