navyman: We used the 180's for the same purposes and of course they work really well also.....but on big mule and whitetail deer, that 165 NPT is a bomb.... smile

One of my pals knocked the snuff out of a 220 gross B&C whitetail in Eastern Colorado with that load....if there was ever a deer that you want "DRT"....that was it! wink
