[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2532469, member: 27307"] It wasn't THAT long ago when most shots at deer were 200 yards or under and the .240 WBY loads used soft points or spitzers or the Partition bullets. Nothing fancy, just plain old cup and core bullets shot into the right place for effective harvesting, at least for meat hunters...;) When I started shooting the .240 WBY for longer range shots, I switched to the Hornady 105 gr. AMAX which is superb on Coues deer. Now I'm going to try out some of the 110 gr. A-Tips to see if Hornady held up their end of the bargain. I also have some Berger 108 gr. ELH to test as well. These may get loaded for a Mule deer hunt. I do shoot the Nosler 95 gr. BT but only in the smaller frame 6XC hunting rifles. Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
