The 300 XTP is a great deer killer. You just can't go wrong with it.
It has become a real favorite among us Savage shooters.
With the Savage, we crank out more fps than y'all other muzzleloader guys do.
So, with smaller bullets, such as the 250 XTP, or the 250 SST, we can get in to trouble, as these slugs may explode on a shoulder shot on a big buck. However, on a lung shot these 250s are very reliable.
The 300 XTP is big enough to provide reliable penetration on even a big buck at Savage speeds.

I cannot imagine you having a problem with this slug on deer, and it would also work on an elk or moose.
