69gr SMK and deer

[hunter5567]

The Winchester PowerPoint 64gr Factory loads work well on deer.
My buddy in east Texas uses them regularly on hogs and deer. He says the bullet mushrooms to about 35 cal and is found on the offside under the hide.
I think he shot about 30 hogs and 9 deer with it. Works about like a 243.
I have some Barnes Originals in 70gr that I'm going to try.

I am loading the Barnes 62gr. with Varget. Grouped nicely and we will see what it does to a deer or hog right after xmas!!!
I have a couple of these waiting for her.

I have taken whitetail deer with these and they have performed well. I have not taken deer over 100 yards with them so I can not comment on how they do once they slow down a bit.

Not to be advised. There are much better projectiles than Sierra Match Kings.

Can anyone tell me how many rounds of ammo you are allowed to have in a mag while deer hunting? Do I need to have a smaller magazine if the rounds are limited to a certain number?

Louisiana has no mag restrictions.
