[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1171387, member: 10178"] I know some guys in east NC that use SKS rifles in 7.62x39 when driving deer with dogs. They told me that the soft point stuff from Wolf etc. all works good but the HP is no good because sometimes it opens up and sometimes it acts like a fmj and just punches a small hole and the deer can go for ever. I shot a deer about 80 yards away with my SKS with a hand load of a case full of H322, don't have my data handy right now, and a Hornady 123 gr SP lit by a CCI 200 using a Lee Factory Crimp Die to keep the bullet nice and snug in the case. It entered one shoulder and wiped out the lungs and exited the other shoulder and the deer went FLOP. This load is a tack driver out of my Yugo SKS. [/QUOTE]
