[QUOTE="Ninering62, post: 2279796, member: 114278"] After ALL the posts I keep reading & bullet test & capture video's that I've read & seen where that SST bullet does not perform & pencils through the deer, I'm always surprised when ppl love them & hunt with them still. I started deer hunting at 13, I just turned 59. In that time, I've lost 1 deer due to a bad hit on my part & no other animals. Last yr I got a deal on 8pks of Hornady .40 cal 200gr SST's in MMP sabots. I'm hunting within 200yds so I'm shooting my CVA Accura V2 .45. The MMP sabots did not do well at all. I replaced them with LBCR's & they shot awesome. Under moa out to 200yds. I shot 2 deer, 1 at 70yds & 1 at 30yds. Both broadside behind the shoulder shots. Both deer took off for the county lune & were never seen or heard from again. I had a very hard time dealing with my life long hunters conscience with that. 2 deer gone due to NON performing bullets. I'll only use them for target shooting or bobcats or coyotes now. I bought Dead Center 220 gr .40 cal bullets & put them in the LBCR's & I shot 3 more deer - all - BANG/FLOP'S like I like -em.
