[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 7499, member: 34"] To the Original Poster. I can assure you that after many years of hunting big game animals and using Match King bullets in different large calibers and at differnt ranges, THEY WORK. If a person has NEVER tried them at various ranges, they would never know just how well they do work now would they? Sierra's Rich Marholtz is a friend of mine and knows what we do with the MK line of bullets. We are Long and extreme longrange hunters and for the "average" short range hunter he will always state what he did to you and what you posted. If he had been talking to an experianced Longrange hunter, I'm sure the answer would have been different because I report to him every year as to what we do with the MK bullets. I can tell you, the MK will do anything a so called hunting bullet will do and do it more accurately at the ranges we shoot. This is why we use them. His explanation of a .4" using a MK or .8" using the GK makes a HUGE difference in excess of 1000 yards. Even at short range the MKs are devistating on game. Use what you want but don't try to cloud the issue that Match Kings don't work as a hunting bullet. We have used them for to many years and know better regardless of what Sierra says. It's Match Kings for me everytime. That includes hunting Deer, elk, Caribou or Moose. Later DC As an add on here---I just got off the phone with the President of the PA 1000 yard club. He just returned from an African hunt yesterday in which one of the fellows shot a Hippo and a Water Bullalo and he used a 220 Swift with a 80 gr JLK bullet. He placed the shots into the brain of each species. The "Match" bullets performed well from the report I was just given. The Presidents son is a guide there. Match bullets do work and shot placement is very important for "ANY" bullet. [ 10-12-2003: Message edited by: Darryl Cassel ] [/QUOTE]
