I don't use them any more as I use the 117gr Sierra. They are quite soft and certainly make a mess of goats. They leave my barrel at around 2850fps. I have shot red stags with them but wouldn't recommend them if you were only hunting reds. They work really well on the Fallow at my speeds.

I have some Moly-Coated 115gr Berger's here if you want to try them. PM your address and I can send you 15 or so.

Thanks sounds good dude.
