I use the 180XTP .430" in a sabot out of my muzzle loader and it puts whitetails down for the count.
Last one I shot was about 60yards full frontal shot right in the brisket, 8 point, 170lbs. guts out.
Deer ran about 70 yards even though when I cut him open, his lungs had been turned to mush lol.
Anyway, yes the 180's do great on whitetail at reasonable ranges.
