Hello all

I know the 150's and 170's are the norm, but does anyone have any info on the capabilities of the 125's for deer sized game (125lb-175lb)? Any info would be appreicated.

Thanks
Brian

I,ve had great success with Sierras 125 JHP over 31.5 grains of 3031 in my Contender. Longest shot was 75 yards, closest was about 15 yards. All one shot kills. I have passed up any shots over 75 yards due to my personal limitations. However, hunting in Pennsylvania, that's generally not a problem.
