[QUOTE="haeffkr, post: 87062, member: 5013"] Hello, I have just spent the last hour reading about the SMK for hunting. I also have been using Nosler B. Tips for my deer hunting exclusively for the last several years and love them cause they work and are accurate in my guns. (243 25-06 260 270) I have a custom 260 w/28" heavy barrel that shoots very well (under .5" @100 yds)with 120 grn BT and I am getting a jewel trigger to replace the factory remington one to get the groups better....I have not really played with the loads much on this gun...my twist is 1-9 also. My shots are going to be from 100 to 450 on deer and I do not really want to go to 142 SMK because I want less drop....but yes there are energy trade offs...etc. Finally to the point... Has anyone shot both BT and SMK in the 100-120 grn range in a 260 or 6.5 caliber, if so which is generally more accurate? thanks Kevin [/QUOTE]
