[QUOTE="p dog shooter, post: 2128, member: 48"] Having been involved in the match king tread on accuratereloading. I belive most of the anti match king crowd have never shot a game animal with them. They read serria's adds and say you can't use them on game. The other day some one was talking about 300 gr 375 killed to eland with it both died very fast bullet didn't exit. A lot of people stated that the bullet failed. Seems to me that it worked well. One guide was recomending 375 and above for shooting black bears huh having shot a few bears they die just find with bullets from a 308 ect. Some people get way more carried away with power then good shooting or want it to make up for bad shooting. No matter want gun you use you can end up with a bad shot if things go wrong. Hitting a limb or something. Another guy was asking what bullets to use for deer out of his 308 target gun I told him to use his match bullets. Deer are not hard to kill as long as the shot is in the right place. Gut shoot them side to side they well run a long ways. Hit them in the lungs they go about 50 to 100 yards no matter what you shoot them with. i think a lot of people think game animals are bullet pruff. Hit them in a good spot and they die. From what I have seen match kings to do game I will have no trouble useing them again. [/QUOTE]
