yes i know very well what they will do to a deer have been using the 385 gr. in my 12 guage since 01 my wife used the 260 gr. this year in her 20 guage. and when i dressed her deer i saw enough damageto make a believer out of me.

I get excellant accuracy with the 300 gr NP HG PP, 110 2f T7, w/ 209 win primer. Under and inch @ 100 and a 6" group @ 200.Plenty of energy @ 200 to lay the smack down on moose elk or deer. I'm zero'd @ 153 yds for a point blank range of 200. (6" kill zone)

I sighted in my dads omega early this fall with 300gr nosler. He taged a nice bear and buck with them. The bullet worked great and shot verry accurate. I wil be trying them myself next year. GOOD LUCK IN LATE SEASON.

I used the Nosler 260 grain in my Knight Disc with a Winchester primer and 120 grain of Pyrodex RS and the accuracy was exceptional. I only shot them to 100 yards, but with the accuracy they displayed, there would have been nothing that would have been safe...

Good luck late season. I will be waiting for a report of first hand experience on how the Nosler worked on a doe.

That is a good bullet and load for deer and you got the 200 yard down that is excellent. This bullet came out of a buck I shot last year with the Nosler, lengthwise thru the brisket, however it was a 300g since I feel they go thru deer better and have better BC and penetration. It went all the way thru the deer to the off is side hind quarter, almost 4 foot of deer. Awsome bullet. Chap Gleason
