[QUOTE="redbullitt, post: 1300221, member: 100987"] I would have no issue using them on pigs or whitetail. No mule deer experience though. I have shot a lot of whitetail with a 178 amax at 2600 FPS from a 308. Distance from 15 yards to 560 yards. All performed just fine. No massive fragmentation or anything like that. Most all shots were heart/lung. Generally between a quarter and half dollar sized exit wound. The very close shots, say within 25 yards did not exit. I have had the same experience with the 140 amax at 2725 from a 260 rem. That said, I have been shooting some of the new ELD bullets and accuracy is great. I hope to do a little whitetail hunting with them this year. [/QUOTE]
