I know it will be devastating on varmints, but what about California deer and wild pigs? I have read on the internet that a lot of people use that bullet on deer with great success and Sierra's tech says it should be good, but he sounded half and half and their site says it is for medium game also. Currently working on a 139 grain load, but if someone can tell me if they any experience with this bullet hunting. Oh, before someone brings it up, I live in and hunt in an area that does not have the stupid lead free law.


It's going to do some damage.. If you're getting close up, I would be shooting copper that light and fast. Cup and core, heavier and slower. If you want to goheavier, give the 150 BT a try. If your rig is solid, you'll get those shooting pretty easily, and they don't grenade.
