Well, the deer around my neck of the woods rarely exceed 200lb, so they're more like large dogs than most deer.........LOL!!! So, I'm confident now that this combo will work on anything out to about 250-300yds. Much like my beloved Remington factory ammo in 180gr RN-CLSP. In fact, this load might actually be a tad better at ranges over 100yds, while only being slightly more destructive at short range
