    welcome to the forum. What kind of accuracy are you getting with that load you mention? There have been a few deer that lost their lives with that kind of load. You might want to try some XTP's also, but I am sure there will be some Optima owners that will help you out big time. Good luck with your rifle, enjoy the sport and again, welcome to the forum.
