At the Celebrity Handgun Hunt several years ago I took my 257 Raptor with me and that year we were allowed to shoot a whitetail buck and 4 does. I used my 257 Raptor and took all 5 and 2 were at ranges well over 200 yards. All were 1 shot kills. A couple of the other Misfits that were there also used the 257 and 240 Raptors and took their deer also at ranges exceeding 200 yards. The Raptors are extremely efficient calibers and do very well on critters up to deer size. I think Bill Firman, Scotty Boggs, Sean Harper and a couple of others used the Raptors on that hunt.
