[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 1530512, member: 86585"] I should have mentioned that I am not hunting elk. My hunting consists of white tail and a coyote now and then. The biggest deer I got this year was a decent sized buck. The SST 140 grain hit as about dead center shoulder as you could ask for. It was a three hundred yard shot and when it hit, he went stiff legged and fell over like a tree falling. I watched him during my “get over my gitter cigarette “ and he was dead for sure. As I got on the four wheeler to go fetch him he started thrashing about and fell over into the woods. The hit DID kill him but it wasn’t as fast as I like. This was when I thought about the quick expansion of the SST hitting shoulder bone. My next deer loads are going to be the ELD- X and I’m staying off of the shoulder. [/QUOTE]
