[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 1706106, member: 53978"] And yes, the 270 Win is a great deer round. For light rifles you might look at the Tikka T3x, or less expensive Ruger American, should you wish. On bullets the lighter bullets have less recoil. The 110 TTSX will cleanly take a deer. My wife has started hunting and used these. Three deer and three pass throughs, no recovered bullets. The "trick" is that these 110gn bullets do not lose weight so they penetrate like the traditional 130gn, or better. Traveleing at 3350fps the 110TTSX only drop -3" at 300 yards when sighted in 1.8" at 100yd. As a compromise, the 129gn LRX is highly accurate in my wife's rifle, especially around 55-55.5 grains R16 (1/2MOA). [/QUOTE]
