200 gr rnfp cast for deer

Post by Johnnyjr » Mon Sep 27, 2021 1:21 pm

Probably the farthest of my shots will be 70 yrs at the most then it's thicker than hell. You think this bullet will be better than 180 gr xtp bullets?.Times a wasting..

what caliber are you using .... if you do your part and put the bullet on target, either of them will take a deer .... with that large a difference in type and weight, the first thing to determine is which one does your rifle like the best .. :?:

Agree whole heartedly with Jim's post above.
Whichever you get to group the best, I myself prefer the cast.
Usually a lot less damaged meat.
Good luck with the hunt.

I prefer a rnfp vs a swc for hunting.
But saying that I once got small 4 pt. with mg Ruger Vaquero and a swc.
He was only a bout 20 yds. away, but it dropped him on the spot.
I believe I was using 10 grs of Unique.
