200g 45/40cal Hornady SST or same Shockwave, pushed by 100-120g of powder 8) 
Thats a great place to start. I took six deer this year with a 200gr SW pushed by 100grs of 777, it was out of a .50 but you should expect similar performance.lane said:200g 45/40cal Hornady SST or same Shockwave, pushed by 100-120g of powder 8)

I would like to welcome you to the forum , It is great to have you here with us.
:yeah:
A 200gr SW or SST Same bullet with 110gr of 777 2fg loose should get you fairly good results. If you are planning on shooting 200yds I would suggest Practicing ALOT at that kind of range For those type of shots takes a lot of skill and knowing your weapond inside and out, SHOOT - SHOOT - and Shoot some more.

Get you some Loose 777 2fg and the hornady 200gr SST load her up hith 110gr of powder you will be amazed at the proformace .
(+) you are trying to push that PB way to fast if you was to shoot a deer
under 100yds most likly it would just EXplode like a bomb when it hit why it probb. wouldn't even penatrate .
The Power Belts are just a Fancy Conical that has to be slowed down to prefoume right a 195gr or 225gr PB should be shooting around 75gr or 80gr of powder .

I use 120 gr. loose 777 under Barnes 300 gr MZ.
Groups to 1 " at 100 yards and took 3 nice deer at ranges from 85 to 140 yards. All dropped where they were shot.
Was able to recover one of the rounds that hit rib and vertebrae - perfect expansion and the recovered wt was/is 299.6 gr.
Actually photographed bullet and sent pix to Barnes to thank them for a great product.
