I've used my 9.3x74's with 286 grain oryx's effectively for whitetails. I did find my 416 Taylor gave full pass thru with 400 Hornaday softs, adequare, but not overgunned. That helped me decide I did not need solids for pasture grizzlies. The solids would have been overgunned. And there are all the squirrels I took with my .54 flintlock. Nope never overgunned, it's all about proper bullet placement.
