I was gonna mention the NBT 120 too, of course that's not exactly original on my part. I found a good load with Varget, shoots accurate and at 3,000 fps. Lots of guys get more speed but I settled on the accuracy load.
I just got the rifle, so can't say how well it kills deer, but it shouldn't be an issue, and everything I've heard is positive.
Best part was, I got to stretch it out a little this past weekend. I have the 2.5 X 8 VX-3 with CDS turret on the rifle. I zeroed at 200 yds., but hitting a 12-inch target at 450 with the 120 NBTs was a slam dunk, and even at 820 was consistent as long as the wind stayed down.
That's more than I'd ask out of the rifle (a 6-lbder) on game, but it was just good to know that the little 120 worked at distance.
