[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 114336, member: 8843"] The A-max is a pretty fragile bullet but the 162 gr pill is a long one that will take a little more penitration before it comes apart totaly and with you velocitys your not stressing it to hard , it it shoot accuratly then I'de use it just relize that if a monster steps out at 300yds and all you have is a quick quartering tword you shot you may have to pass if your rushed into a standing shot , but if your able to take a second and brace for the shot or take up a rest then you should be able to put the bullet where you want it. I had a friend shoot a big hog (around 300lbs) at a range of 50-75yds with a 7mm-08 hae shot through the hogs on side shoulder through both lungs and the bullet fragmnets were lodge in the off side "sheild" , the pig dropped and never got back up muzzel velocity was in the 2600fps range Ending statment , if they shoot accuratly then use them and that combo will take you to the 1000yd mark [/QUOTE]
