We shot a couple does recently on our place with the 129gr/2,900fps load. One was hit at the very back of lungs and looked to almost be a gut shot (deer was walking at 190yds). She folded up at the shot. Second deer was also hit far back, but caught a bit more lung on the impact side (gut exit). She was shot at 80yds and made it across 25yds of open ground before piling up. No big bones hit on either deer, exits on both. I'd have expected both to run a good bit further, but interior damage was pretty extensive. Load continues to be a good killer.
