The 120 may be well suited, not sure, what I can tell you is that the 140 at or above 2800 has let me down twice and will never do so again.

Now to be fair , I hunt from steep angles, climbing stand anywhere from 25-40 feet up with shots ranging from right under to 200 tops. Twice, I didn't get an exit wound thus the cork wasn't popped on the bottom of the barrel resulting in zero blood trail which is important for me in the swampy thickets we have here.

Personally I would opt for something more like the TTSX, LRX, GMX, E Tip or partition style on bigger bodied whitetails if you also shoot for lungs and not neck or high shoulder.
