I shoot the Federal 200 gr TBT out of my 338 Federal. I killed a decent sized buck last fall with one thru the last rib and out the opposite shoulder - dropped on the spot. Decent sized exit wound but didn't lose much meat. Also shot a cow elk this fall at about 250 yards thru the lungs - she turned and walked about 35 yards towards me and dropped. Small sample size but I agree with prm. They seem like a pretty tough bullet that can still be used on smaller animals. If I was strictly hunting deer with them I'd lean towards a lighter bullet if one was available.
