142 MK for hunting ?

[Lonnie]

Hi,

Has anyone used either the 6.5 Caliber, 142 Sierra Match King or Lapua 139 Scenar for long range hunting for such as antelope or deer? If so, how do they perform?

Thanks, Lonnie

I personally haven't had much luck with the 142 MK when used in the same fashion as other MK's... I know they'll kill deer when fired into them from bow to stern and vise-versa but broadside hasn't worked well for me.

Here's an older thread on this subject.
