Just about any bullet out of a 7 RM will kill deer. One thing I like about the 7 RM is that it is usually easy to get multiple loads to shoot at our near the same point of impact, at least at 100 yds. I have had 140s, 160s and 175s all go into less than 1.5" groups from at least three different rifles. The others I never bothered to use anything other than various 160s.

Any of the sleeker hunting bullets will stay within +/- 2" of the target bullets of the same weight for a long ways off.
