[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 946681, member: 1007"] The 178 makes a much better bullet for deer than any SMK, IMHO. I love so many bullets in the 308 win but if I were forced into choosing one bullet for the rest of my life, the 178 amax would likely be at the top of the list. Insanely accurate and excellent for deer sized critters. There are much better choices for a given application but all things considered, it's a great balance for a wide variety of applications. Assuming you're getting good speeds that is. 2700-2800 is very doable. At 2700+, they'll give you a good range on deer. A little weak in the wind but with a little practice, tolerable. [/QUOTE]
