[QUOTE="DKSDonnie, post: 1719670, member: 102446"] I too have killed deer at those ranges but more than often I lost a lot of deer due to the BT exploding on impact with little or no penetration from WSM's traveling at 3200 fps. I love the accubond for around performance esp on the closer shots up to 200 yds. Once you get over 3,000 fps, I use the accubond or something with a bonded core. The last deer I shot at 125 yds with a 7mm WSM with BT's dead on the shoulder with a dead rest didn't even flinch with very little blood and was never to be found. Never again. If you don't shoot over 300 yds, the 140's are plenty but if you are going to stretch it to 600 yds or go after elk, I prefer the 160's due to BC. Shot placement is also a huge factor. [/QUOTE]
