    If using on deer shot placement will be key. I use them in my .308 as do many others and even going 2520 fps I have had 3 blow ups on the shoulder.
    I tried them in my .300 win mag and they were not good at all. That was going a bit faster than 2850 though. The 178ß work well in the .300 and through the mates .300 wsm
