Thread: 223 on deer

I can only speak for myself in the UK but for head and neck shots don’t overlook the Sierra 1380 69g HPBT as with 25g of N140 at book length I get a ragged hole and same POI at 100m as Barnes 62g TSX (30190) with 26g N140 so tend to use the Matchking for head and neck out to 150m and the Barnes for body shots any further and have never failed to recover a deer but have failed to recover a single bullet but the deer are small, no bigger than the size of a fallow yearling.
