[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2416270, member: 30902"] Flying bomb. Use a good mono or bonded bullet for best performance in rounds that move at STW velocities or above. Great for predators and varmints if you just want them dead, but a poor choice for game. A few years back all I had were some varmint loads using the SST and AMAX for killing coyotes and hogs when I spotted a really nice 12pt at about 425 in the brush. Thinking the SST was a stouter bullet I threw one in. I carefully lined up the shot and made a perfect "Heart Lung Shot. When I got to him I nearly threw up. There was a hole on the off side big enough to kick a soccer ball through and even the shoulder had been all but blown off. [/QUOTE]
