BR,

The 154 grainer has been my favorite deer bullet since the 1970s. Previously, I used 175 grain in my 7x57s but made the change after reading a comment or two by Harvey Donaldson in Handloader magazine.

Accuracy was as good or better than the 175s and definately beat the accuracy of the 139 and 140 grain bullets tried.

48-49 grains of H4350 starts the bullet about 2800 fps and shoots flat enough even for the Mule deer hunting I do out west.

Have only caught a couple bullets. This one below went stem to stern on a large whitetail buck and was found inside the hide after busting the pelvis.
