[QUOTE="skipglo, post: 2096558, member: 87776"] I'm with Rick Richard on this one. But would like to embellish on his statement a little. I have 49 years of Deer hunting experience and add Elk, Moose and Bears into that as well...was also a licensed guide and outfitter for 10 years. Since you said Deer are your primary goal I think you are looking at WAY too much bullet and not just that your Gun may or may not like your choice! The animals might not either...the last 10 years it has become excruciatingly noticeable to me...that many of these Heavies... actually just about all are too much for Deer. They don't even know they are dead for 40-140 yards. In bush country especially....not a good thing. Dropping back down to the 180s but even more so 150-165 gr. and the animals went back to DRT...just my 2¢ worth...but 2 ¢ on hundreds of witnessed kills [/QUOTE]
