Anyone have a pet deer load using Winchester model 94 lever w/ 20" BB?

I have Hornady 265 FTX and FP as well as 300gr XTP bullets.

Thanks.

Twenty grains of H110 under a 270-grain Speer. The 300s didn’t stabilize well in my slow-twist barrel.

A 240 XTP dead on at 50 Yards and one inch low at 100 Yards .
The 300 XTP the same at 50 Yards 3.5 inch low at 100 Yards .
Three an one half inches low at 100 Yards may be a poor shot or a miss .
