I had friends back in the 70's who used their Sako A1 match rifles for the small Vanvouver Island deer. Some of them used the 70gr. Speer semi RN at about 2,800fps., but one just used his match load with 52gr. Sierra HP.
Similar sized game I expect.
My cousin Ed. a WW11 Beaufighter pilot, used his .308 match rifle with 150gr. .30/30 bullets as he said its "bang/flop I'm getting too old to track them"
