From memory 2635fps you should do better with a longer barrel but this load carries plenty enough energy out to the distance you state you wish to shoot out to.
I sacked a couple fallow with them a couple weeks back at 300+ yards both bang flops.
From what I've witnessed using the 145gn eldx in multiple 270 cal rifles I expect they will be just as effective on reds, I haven't had the opportunity to shoot any reds yet but I will as soon as we're allowed out again :D
