I've found flat base bullets give a little better accuracy. Mr. Kleinguenther liked 180 hornady spire points with 7828. Hasbeen

I'm shooting 180 gn grand slams over Re 26. I have shot 1 last year and 2 this year with it. Bucks just shake at the impact and drop. Not much meat damage at all. I like it.

Hasbeen Dug a couple of Kleinguenthers out, both 300 Weatherby’s, checked zero on them. He made accurate rifles! ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/dt7ZCSLB/94-C7772-A-B764-4379-8-D91-D230-C7-E00-FB5.jpg)

If you are wanting Deer McNuggets....use a 110 grain SP.....with 80 grains of 4064.....

If you are wanting Deer McNuggets....use a 110 grain SP.....with 80 grains of 4064..... Hell yeah. Some guys really do love blowing their deer to smithereens. Then they get pizzed when you suggest using the right bullet... I like using 180 and 200gr partitions. Wanting to do some testing with the 175gr LRX though...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Seems kind of much for deer. Depending on range, and assuming typical distance, I would consider Lapua Naturalis over 4895 so as to adjust speed if it's overkill.
