I have shot a fair number of deer with the 129SST. They are good performers. The front section seems to open quite quickly and cause a decent wound channel. The rear section holds together, I have retrieved a few projectiles from the animal off side which are good mushroom, core and jacket still together. I expect the 123gn with the lower grendel velocities would be similar.
