.224" Deer Bullet...?

Ive used a lot of different stuff to kill deer using .224 bullets. In my humble opinion speed is king. As soon as I get a chance Ill be loading up some of the new barnes 45 grain tsx jobbies. Extra speed is welcome anytime.
This isnt saying that any of the others wont work. Noslers partition is a good bullet, but there is a noticeable difference in a deers reaction being shot with a partition and a 50 grain X bullet. Mind you both die usually, but the lighter bullets tend to give me more DRT's. A lot more.
 
I like the 62TSX...that's from shooting deer with them (no offense meant to anyone above, I use the quick reply), not from reading field and stream. I've shot deer with the 75A-max's via .224's and wouldn't recomend that though.
