It's all been said already except this: I find it a) puts them down nicely and b) doesn't bloodshot much meat. That's a nice combo at 20-30 yards.
I will respectfully disagree with my friend Dogzapper. He mentioned that going bigger than 200-gn will negatively effect your trajectory. It may, a bit, but far enough out there where that matters, the 225 really kills the 200 in wind bucking. The 200's have the BC of an ashtray. With a 225 NP I can hit a 10" plate at 400 yds and the bullet is still going ~1800 fps. With a 200, neither is true.
Gack gack gack <g>. It's a fun cartridge.
