I know you'll love the Barnes. They'll put the smack on your whitetails.

That load will kill a bull elk, so deer don't have a chance.

I am hearing all this flack about Powerbelt bullets and quite frankly I don't know which way to go. I no longer use them but I have in the past. I used 245 gr HPs pushed by 100 gr of FFFg from my flinter and shot 2 deer with them. The first one, an average 120# doe went about 50yds before piling up. The second, a very large old mature doe went about 75 yds. Both shots were pass throughs through both lungs. So I have no complaints. Currently I almost exclusively use Hornady XTPs because I get good accuracy and performance from them.
