I entered the data for the handloads I'm having made. As you can see, this load is probably good out to 150 yards with little problem. 175 to 200 yards would require practice and a pretty good holdover. Anything past that, I wouldn't even take the shot (22 inch drop at 225 yards!). But then again, I've never shot a deer at 100 yards, never mind 200. And the 300gr InterLock bullet should expand and push right through a broadside shot while still holding together.
