[QUOTE="eddybo, post: 166567, member: 7194"] Anybody shot deer sized critters with these? I am running them just a tad under 3k out of a 6.5x47. I just walked in from the range, shot a good group at 850 with less than an inch of verticle and had similar results yesterday at 700. Telkev another LRH member hit a two inch target spot 4 out of 9 times with this load/gun yesterday at 700, and the other 5 were very close considering the switchy wind we had. What kind of terminal performance would these match bullets have on deer sized game at these ranges? I prefer lung shots over high shoulder hits, will these bullets do the job? [/QUOTE]
