[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2669662, member: 27307"] Depending on how you set up the sight-in, 500 yards will max out the Partition for deer size game and 1,000 ft/lbs. So, if you really are concerned about energy, use a good rangefinder or sneak in closer.;) I use the .240 WBY for Coues deer so closer can be a real challenge. I've been using the Hornady 105 gr. AMAX until I run out since they were discontinued. I have been testing the Hornady 110gr. A-Tips now with good results and a little longer range and energy. If you're planning on larger deer size game, whitetail or Mule deer, I'd run the A-Tips. This might require an adjustment to the chamber dimensions. :) [/QUOTE]
