Haven't used the Remington's but have used the Nosler's 120 & 140 grain on mulies, whitetail, antelope, PD's, coyotes, and yes even turkey with good results.
My opinion for what is worth is that the 120 Core-Loks should do a fine job on deer at reasonable distances.

thats the only factory load i have shot in my 15" 7-08. 1 1/2" at 100 for 5 shots was my best. i havn't shot anything with them(wanted to use my handloaded 120gr noslers) but i would not hesitate to use them for whitetail deer. [Big Grin]
