Default RE: 180 Grain .40 XTP on Deer?

I have used the 200gr 40 cal bullets with excellant results on both deer and boar 2 of each I shot them with 50/40 sabots in a 50 cal with 110gr 777 FF all were one shot kills and all droped with in 5 yards of the hit.
the 200gr XTP is ok it did fine but I like the SW better it shoots enough flatter and I think it opens a bit slower which gives better penatration in case of an angle shot. While I could not get acceptable accuracy out of the 180gr the 200gr were capable of minute of angle with 1/28 twist. Lee
