[QUOTE="GreekRedneck, post: 591545, member: 39835"] I like the A-Max. I use the 155s with 300wsm and load then in friends 30.06 with great results on deer. I traded off a 700 6.5-06 which my buddy used to fold up a big Virginia doe at 516yards with the 140gr. A-Max. The sst is a great bullet also, but I don't like the canelure. As far as the begers go, I don't think you'll have any trouble. They will penetrate before they blow up, resulting in instant kills. The only time they would give you trouble would be firing a 10 shot string. At that velocity when the barrel gets hot, it will cause the lead to melt inside the hunting vlds due to the thin jacket. You shouldn't have any problems with the thicker target vlds, but they wont be as lethal on game. The scenars would be another great choice and for the price the nosler custom competition would be hard to beat. Don't forget about the match kings. They would be my decline choice to the A-max. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
