    I've had good Success with Sierra Game king 85 gr and berger 87gr VLD Hunting on game from goats to red hinds from a 1:10 Savage 99 . I have Shot Larger and Tougher game with the Bergers out past 250 yd From a good Bolt action.
    More precision and velocity.

    The 1:10 would not stabilize 100gr low velocity but my 1:8 bolt action will stabilize 105 gr vld down at 1050fps.
