^ This.

IMO, there are no "bad" 338 bullets for deer; I've used bullets from 180 gr NBT's (no longer made) to 250 gr Partitions, which are not at all necessary, but they all worked.

I agree, but I have not down-loaded like the OP. I've used 210 Partitions and 225 Hornadys on deer and blackies with excellent results, but at ~2700-2800 FPS. Even so, I cannot imagine an expanding 338 bullet that wouldn't work. I'm surprised at the results he is seeing.


Exactly..
