[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 298784, member: 8927"] I have used the .284 162 a-max out of a 7mm mag at 3060 fps. On goats at around 200 yards they were like a bomb! Instant kills with shoulder shots, can't remember the exits, on big billy goats no exit, I did get some exits on nanny's etc. I have shot deer, pigs and bull tahr from 358yds out to 638 yards with them, all broadside shots, only one did not exit. Most bullets went through ribs and might have clipped a shoulder bone. The bull tahr at 630 yds was in the back of the ribs. Most animals were DRT, the bull tahr went down hill about 50 metres, all others dropped on the spot. I definetly recommend them, but wouldn't use them at close range on large game, I feel they might blow up with out penetrating properly. Stu. [/QUOTE]
