I forgot to add that my ideal deer round would be a 6.5-06. As far as Rocky's Mangleum statement it has been my personal experience that poor bullet selection and shot placemeant lead to excesive damage not so much cartridge selection. The worst meat damage I have been witness to came from a Sierra Gameking out of a 26-05 pushed fast and impacted too close. I have shot deer with 3 out of the 4 Ultra Mags at distances from 80 too about 400 yards and have had very little to no damage at all using swift bonded bullets and the all copper Barnes.
