[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 59461, member: 313"] Instantaneous kills out past 800yrds were no problem with the 75gr A-Max in .224 dia. For terminal performance, I would imagine that a fast 6mm A-Max would work even better. According to Sierra, their SMK bullets are "likely" to pencil through small varmints due to their heavy jackets. I achieved better accuracy in my rifle with the A-Max bullets so the SMK's are just sitting on the bench. The JLK bullet is as accurate as the SMK's, if not better, but are said to be more frangible. Their BC should be higher than the SMK bullet too. They may be just the ticket for the type of use that you mentioned. VH [/QUOTE]
