[QUOTE="Davew223, post: 1764136, member: 86753"] There are some "match bullets" that are great on game like the A-Max and the ELD-X. The SMK's are not one of them, the jackets are too thick and structural. I promise that that bullet will not liquefy the heart or any other muscle or organ without either getting thrown sideways by a bone or by sending bone fragments through. Without hitting bone, that bullet is no more effective than using a target tip on an arrow 95% of the time. Also, SMK's are not any longer the go to for long range precision competition. I hit a deer in the neck with one years ago and the animal never looked like it got hit. He ran off like nothing happened. Luckily it cut the jugular and bled out in about 75 yards. BTW, the neck meat was still in great shape and turned into a delicious roast. [/QUOTE]
