[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 165168, member: 2852"] Jwp is right. I shot both the 250 SMK and the 250 Scenar into wet and dry phonebooks and the SMK had inconsistent performance with some opening up ok and some just zipping through with no destruction at all. The Scenars never opened up and are probably still drilling their way to China. I actually did have plans to work up a load with the 265 Wildcat bullet to use on the moose but there were no new ones in stock. Richard did offer some test bullets from the original batch that had tips that were not as good as current production but I decided to wait until he gets more new ones made. They should beat the pants off either the SMK or the Scenar for bc. I have decided to use the 300 SMK for the moose hunt. The 225 AB kills with such boring regularity that it is time to stir the mix a bit. At least, that's what I'm thinking right now. I still might reach for an AB when mrs bullwinkle is in my crosshair!
