[QUOTE="younggun, post: 427940, member: 26865"] thats what im debating between is having the 168gr as an all around bullet for antelope and mule deer (more than enough) and elk (arguably just enough) or to have two different setups either with the 140gr and 180gr or the 168gr and 180gr. I do plan on installing a break so i dont think the recoil from the 180gr will be a hinderance with that on and if its thats the case it would be halfway tempting depending on the velocities achieved with the 180 it would be tempting to just use that as an all around bullet...even tho i am concerned with spoiling a little too much meat on the antelope. after all the goal is to knock it down not pick it up and carry it away. does anyone have any thoughts on that one? i suppose the reason the 180 is so attractive is that .67 or so bc on a hunting bullet which when combined with that weight it has quite the energy over quite the distance :D any thoughts?
