    Deer, Tahr, Wallabies, the 95 Berger VLD is doing it all for me, no "failures" sacks them on the spot. (Up close at times too) I'll send you some with useful load data if you need. The Targex is essentially a Berger VLD with a rebate boat tail and any number of people using them to kill everything they point at.
