[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 344402, member: 1007"] That is correct. I have also read that in the Hornaday manual that the Amax was good for hunting up to deer size thin skinned light boned game. Maybe on their website when thay say medium to large game they are refering to elk as medium and moose and grizzley bears as large game.? It would be intersting to call Hornaday and ask them about the difference between the manual and the website. On a side note, my cousin just harvested a nice coues whitetail buck at 500 yards last night with the 168 Amax. He dropped him with one shot through the high shoulder and finished the job through the lungs from the same spot. Both exits were the size of a quarter and the wound path was as good as any. The lungs came out in pieces. Unlike the SMK, the Amax is very predictable. They expand at very low velocities and explode at high velocities and they are not enough for elk and larger. M [/QUOTE]
