Was wondering how the 45cal. 300gr XTP expands on whitetails when it impacts at lower velocities, say around 1200fps or so? I can get some at a good price with some MMP 'short' sabots (for fifty cal) will be using them in a Ruger 77/50. I figure I should get about 1500fps or so at the muzzle and shots at a deer will come at 75yds or less. If you don't think this would be a good load what do you recommend for a bullet that will strike at lower velocities? BTW, Powerbelts of any weight don't shoot well in this particular rifle.
Thanks,
