[QUOTE="Highvoltage, post: 1666229, member: 109082"] I’ve never shot any match bullets into an animal but I can comment on the Sierra 165 hpbt being an extremely accurate and deadly bullet. The bc is terrible but from a 3006 doing 2850 it don’t matter too much out to 450yds. I’ve seen bull elk killed in the 300-450 range where the bullet entered, exited and liquified the internal organs with little meat damage. I think a lot of the performance is due to the lower velocity at those ranges. Absolutely perfect performance for a hpbt in my opinion, the 85 gr works admirably for deer and smaller game as well [/QUOTE]
