[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 783858, member: 2693"] You took the most **** poor hunting bullet on the market in my opinion. I will never ever use an SST bullet. I took a buddy to TX and he used a 308, 150 SST factory loads for a pronghorn. Blew a hole the size of a foot ball on the entry side and simply took off the meat and skin. Didn't even break bone or penetrate more than flesh deep. Even though I've killed blackbears with Bergers, Swift Sciroccos, Barnes TTSX, and Accubonds, I've not lost one. My favorite bear bullet is the Swift Scirocco 180 grain in 30 cal. The first bonded plastic tipped mass produced bullet for hunting and it flat out works. I have about 300 loaded in the safe for my 300 RUM with Re25. I used Re22 with the same bullet in my 30.06 which has now accounted for a half dozen blackbears. Don't ever use the SST bullet. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
