Using 777 powder and Hornady SST you can achieve ranges farther than you think. I shoot 90 grains and shoot out to 250 and a touch farther. To date I have shot two past 200 yards. When you hit the deer that far you can hear the bullet hit pretty cool to hear. They don't even know whats going on till its too late. Farthest shot was 230 yards with 80 grains of 777 hit the front shoulder and almost went completely threw the otherside. Good luck!!
