[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 2535827, member: 10291"] My sample size and experience is surely much higher with the 140’s over the 156’s, but my experiences with performance on game and the expansion characteristics of the 156’s are similar to yours. I have personally stuck with the 140 HVLD(and JLK VLD’s which perform similarly) on medium game to 1000 yards with excellent results on deer at this range and to 1200 with antelope. IMO, the 156’s, with the greater sectional density), would likely be my choice in the +2950FPS range if larger game(elk) were on the plate, or for use on the big bodied Canadian deer at the longer distances.
