I toted a 7/08 Win M70 20" Synthetic carbine loaded with 139s at 2850 over Varget in Colorado. Took a deer, a very killing load. Had an Elk come by under 50 yds, unfortunately it was not legal per brow tine length of 5" in that area, lucky him
Hornady makes good bullets. A few are a tad soft like the SST and Amax for harder targets, but would do great on lungs or at extended ranges. The IL SPs are GTG. I ran the 162s in a 7RM
