You mentioned a 120 grain Nosler, is that factory ammo or handloads? I won't be reloading any time soon. I'm a big believer in making 2 holes in a deer as opposed to the bullet blowing up inside with no exit wound. Will the 120 grain bullets accomplish this? Are there factory rounds available? Thanks.

Yes and if she will take down a pronghorn as stated in the review at 300 yards I don't think you'll have an issue at 200 with a white tail.

Good luck,
