? on 300 Win Mag.
Has anyone used the Winchester 180 grain power- point on white-tails? Our large deers are 200 pounds class here. Would like to know how these bullets perform on say a 150-200 pound deer. Thanks for any information you can give me on this.

I have used them on deer of that size range as well as the Remington Core-lokt and never had bullet failure with either. FWIW, this is not from personal experience but I have read that the PowerPoints when used on larger game had a lot less problem with core separation than the Core-lokts. I wish they made the PP in .308 165grain.

The 180 grain power point is far more than adequate for 200 pound whitetails. It'll do just fine for you.
