[QUOTE="santee116, post: 435405, member: 15950"] I have killed several hundred deer and hogs throughout my lifetime with Sierra Gamekings and Pro Hunters and I would say that 99% of them have dropped in their tracks. If you shoot them in the sholder, they will drop. Most will be complete pass throughs. Not saying I would shoot an elk sized animal with them (would probably go with an Accubond or Barnes), but deer and hog you will be more than fine. In .243 I have shot the 100 grain SGK. In 30-06 I shot the 150 grain SGK. Currently I shoot a .260 with 120 grain Sierra Pro Hunters and in my .300 mag I shoot the 180 grain SGK. So far this year I have killed three hogs and one buck with the .260, all DRT. With the .300 I have killed four does all DRT. In my, personal experience, they have performed outstanding. The only game that has ever run on me, with Sierra Bullets, were poor shots (behind the sholder). One thing I always say though, shoot whatever [B]hunting[/B] bullet your rifle groups the best. An accurate shot is more important than anything else. [/QUOTE]
