[QUOTE="rufous, post: 90864, member: 122"] Dave King said this about using SMK bullets on big game: "The caveat being that one must ensure the bullet gets to the intended target (critical organ(s)) and not flatten on a gigantic bone before entry." With that said I do not think I will give them a try because I do not want to be limited in the shots I take. I want to be able to take a quartering toward me shot if necessary, not wait for the animal to turn so that it is broadside. I want to be able to take any reasonable shot the moment it presents itself because I may not get another chance. I know that with lots of bullets out there I would not have to pass up that quartering to shot. Thanks all for your input. If I misunderstood the limitations that Dave King placed on the SMK I would gladly hear more from him or others. Rufous. [/QUOTE]
