100gr eld-vt in 6.5prc for deer.

Thoughts on this load for whitetail deer in southeast. Most shots 100-300 yards. I have it dialed in running 3400 for coyote, just wondering your thoughts.

Will it kill a deer, absolutely , are there better options, absolutely. Stay off a shoulder and put it in the vitals.

I would be a bit worried about penetration at that velocity especially if it’s a close-range situation. If you put it in the neck it probably wouldn’t be an issue though.

I’m ready to see some examples. I likely won’t try it at the ranges I normally shoot at (short) just due to bloodshot and meat loss

I don’t doubt it would kill deer but I wouldn’t want to be the one having to clean them after getting hit with that combo
