[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 501298, member: 25488"] I have killed deer with both the 130 and the 140 and of five, none have taken another step. they all fell dead in their tracks. Like I said my longest shot was 320 yards but that was with the 130 and I still had a complete pass through.with significant energy dumped into the animal. the closer they are the larger the exit wound, so I would suggest rib cage shots. They have worked very well for me. You just can't beat 6.5s in general for deer. And yes, I do agree that the advantage of the 140 will show at past 600 yards. [/QUOTE]
