[QUOTE="Trapper1960, post: 663757, member: 37066"] OK guys, Just got back from Africa and took almost every animal (15 critters in all) using my 264 win mag. The first day we (me and my son) took two warthogs and both dropped in their tracks using the 140 gr. SST. That evening, I took a gemsbok at 200 yards with the same load and shot him square in the shoulder and he dropped in his tracks also. But there is a hitch to this. Although the animal dropped, he was not dead and I had to finish him off. After we skinned him out I found the SST. The core had completely separated from the jacket. From there on out I switched to my Barnes 120 gr. TTSX. Below is a pic of the recovered SST. For the duration og the hunt we only used the SST for small stuff like warthogs, jackles, etc. [IMG]http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/225/sstk.jpg/[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
