This season I used a 280 REM with 150g Partitions and high shoulder shots. Shot 6 deer with that combo, all 6 were 1 shot kills, the shortest being 30 yards and longest 200 yards give or take. All but the 200 yard shot (which was also the biggest deer) went down where they stood and he only went 30 or 40 yards.

But I'm thinking of trying the Barnes VOR-TX TTSX in the 280 next year and see how it likes those.
