[QUOTE="buffalorancher, post: 311627, member: 5771"] I never recovered any of them as they all passed through. I've shot a lot of deer with a 107 SMK in my 6-284 and they will explode out to 7-800 yards but the 240 is a completely different beast. We have a small food plot/green field that has produced a lot of deer and it has a decent shooting spot at 300 yards. Sometimes I carry an old Rem M700 in 300 Wby that shoots the factory Remington ammo I bought from a going out of business sale very well. All 5 or 6 deer I shot on the green field at 300 yards with the Rem. were bang flop and every deer with the 240 SMK ran including a small yearling. Not long range or very scientific but it is what it is. My elk license is a once-in-a-lifetime Nebraska bull tag so I don't want to take any chances so I am going to shoot some Berger 210's and 200 Accubond's today. The 240 is a big bullet and it may work well but I'm not completely convinced. [/QUOTE]
