Frank,
My area has so few legal deer I was really loaded for Coyotes and Bobcats. Those fmj's just zip through w/o expansion and pelt damage. A good neck shot in the spine on deer and a good head shot on hogs they do fine but I agree there a clearly better choices for deer hunting. The little buck was only 15 yds from my tree stand and the dog was chasing squirrels about 40 yds. Close fun shots.
