so what would be the best projectile for Blacktail deer?

Not trying to be facetious but this all depends on what gives you the performance you want. Every year, there are many deer taken with your RB shot-string. Keep in mind that mass kills. I have hunted with most projectiles and while you are putting in some range-time, try the Hornady Great plains bullet, along with the Maxi-hunter. These performed better for me, in my hunters, than the Max-balls. Also try the sabots, with a 230 or 240 grn. .44 Pistol bullet. Currently I have pretty much settled on a 240grn. lead pistol bullet in a .44/.50 sabot.
One old Buckskinner group that I hunt with, that only shoot .54's PRB and 85-95 grns. of BP. We take our share of deer, up to your listed range. ...
Be Safe !!!
