I know its the other end of the scale to ballistic tipped 120s but what do people think of the above for UK deer species. A freind in Norway uses them on everything from Beaver :)shock:) to Moose. At the moment Im mainly shooting roe, but one like to be able to knock anything down I come accross, especially as Im plannign a trip on red stags later this year. I quite like the idea of having "one gun one load" as its reduces faf. it was 100grn soft points for the .243 for everything. Range will be more than 200m most of the time, but would like to think it would still knock them down at longer ranges.

Would the meat damage be bad?

I assume they drop stuff quickly?

How quick could they go?

Are round nosed bullets an advantage/disadvantage?


Thanks Folks
