[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 650365, member: 33822"] I agree with staying away from the SST. Buddy of mine shot a bull a couple years ago with one and it exploded in the front side lung and completely disintegrated. I could not even find the jacket and the far side lung was in perfect shape. Only reason the bull dropped was from the 2nd shot that ricocheted upwards after hitting a rib bone, and then traveling up into the spine. I did find the jacket from that bullet, completely separated from the core. He got lucky that 2nd bullet ricocheted or we would have been in for a long track. Shot a wild pig several years back with one and just completely exploded too. You have plenty of great info from guys on what bullets to use. I am a big fan of Barnes X and Nosler Accubonds. Never used a Berger but might see how they shoot as Broz has some very credible advice on them. Broz ... holy $#!! that's a big bull! [/QUOTE]
