They do not make a 77gr only the 70gr but IMO is not the best performer for that type of caliber.
If you are hunting deer the 62gr TTSX will show less penetration and will dump a lot more energy.
It is all in the velocity of impact and keep in mind these stout bullets can afford a lower SD in exchange for a substantial
increase of impact speed.
Everything they do gets better with the speed specially in an animal like a small white tail where more penetration is
a waste.
If you want more expansion at slower speeds try the cutting edge mth in 65gr.

But I have not done enough testing to say they are ideal for deer. Initially look pretty consistent too but more testing needs
to be done. Others can comment.
Another that you might want to consider (expensive though) is the swift sirocco 75gr bonded. Very stout bonded and shorter than the
70gr TTSX. These have lead but not that much with a really thick jacket at the bottom so they stay together pretty good.
Ammo, I don't know check the below vendors but also consider reloading these expensive rounds.
All you need to reload for hunting fits in a shoe box for a few boxes of decent hunting ammo and will save a lot of money.
