I have been reloading 160-165gr pointed, soft point, boat tail noslers with IMR 4350 powder (55 gr) for about 10 years now. They shoot really really well for me. I tried 120gr one year, but the bullet exploded before exiting the deer. Took a shot to the vitals and the neck to kill it. I never used those again.
my load keeps me sighted in at a half inch high at 50 yards, and is never more than 1.5 inches above or below, out to over 200yds, 6 inches at 250yds. It is a very flat shooting setup.
