[QUOTE="buxton, post: 1151286, member: 54731"] Old thread but still useful. i use 140bt in a pistol. about 40 deer kills. Double lungs dead in 35yrds or less. Will still go through a shoulder at 330 yrds. MOST hit the ground dead. Most no exit with exploded lungs. 300 yrds from a pistol is 400 from a rifle. The best deer cartridge there is. Now factory ammo is on endangered species list. I used these bullets because I needed deer to be drt, (fence line) and with few exits and bullets that explode if they hit ANYTHING I felt they offered safety with our hunter to land ratio. I have flipped deer over backwards with straight on shots. This all at 2550fps. [/QUOTE]
