[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 435505, member: 505"] With deer and low velocity rounds you should be fine. But the gamekings are notorious for complete jacket/core seperation and completely blowing apart on impact. Untold numbers of animals lost to these bullets. Just telling you what the history is so you know. Why take the risk when you don't have to. Lots of animals have been killed with them. Plenty lost with them also. I have seen many of them blow up on the shoulder of a deer or antelope and not penetrate the vitals leaving a nasty wound but an animal that can get away without a finishing shot. I am not here to hurt anyones feelings. I am glad a few people have had success with them. I hope you continue to. I am just telling what I know about these bullets. They will fail on a regular basis. As the game gets bigger and tougher the failures get more alarming. [/QUOTE]
