209x50 ?
« on: November 01, 2005, 06:27:37 PM »
I am getting great groups and would like to use it for deer hunting (close shots only - within 35 yards).  My load is a little on the light side and I was curious if this would be effective on deer...

60 grains 777
240 TC Mag Express

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I bet it would work just fine out to 50 yards, just about anything would
