I have used the 85 grain Sierra HPBT on coyotes and deer 'cause they are really accurate in every rifle/cartridge combination that I've tried them in, but I have decided that they are a little too fragile for deer, so I have moved on to more ruggedly constructed bullets like the ABs and Partitions when I want to shoot deer with .243" bore rifles.
