[QUOTE="Kevin Cram, post: 261222, member: 2215"] A 168 Match King is enough for deer at that range but, if the furthest your going to be shooting is 400 yards I would suggest using a bullet that will open up better. Now I'm not doggin' the match kings (I use them too) but 300-400 yards isn't all that far and you would be better off with a bullet that will expand more rather than one that will just poke a small hole (unless you hit solid bone). If you want to stick with Sierra bullets I would try a Game King in 165 g. You still have the boat tail and long range performance but in a more expandable version. What other bullets do you have, that you could to use? [B][I][U]This is what a 168 grain A-max will do to a deer from a 300 WSM at 625 yards.[/U][/I][/B] [URL]http://s266.photobucket.com/albums/ii242/KevinCram/?action=view¤t=JohnCrumb625yardbuck.flv[/URL] [/QUOTE]
