I plan to deer hunt with my 8mm Mauser this year and have been researching ammo. I see that sellier and belloit sends a 196 gr bullet around 2500 fps while others seem to be around 30-30 speeds 2100-2200 fps. My question is will the faster sellier and belloit rounds over penetrate within 100 yards? Using only iron peep sights I can't imagine a shot much over 100 yards. I want to make sure the faster round is ok otherwise I will buy PPU/PRVI. Thoughts?
