[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 26985, member: 34"] [b]Re: Prove MK\'s Expand At Long Range.[/b] Sakofan The picture that Boyd posted for me was of my 8 point this past season using a MK at short range of only 75 yards. I was using my 280 Mountain rifle on that one. The 168 gr 7mm Match King was used. I did it for proof that the MK will expand at short range. For Savage 99 I have recovered only two MK bullets from elk out of at least 20 killed and the MK did in fact mushroom perfectly. These were in excess of 1200 yards. Your on a Longrange hunting forum and if your a short range shooter, you may not understand the princple behind LR shooting and bullet performance. Don't believe everything you read in the Sierra manual. The Match king does in fact expand---it is a hollow point---think about ANY hollow point you have EVER used, what does it do--EXPAND. Go back in the archives and find the pics we have posted long ago of wounds on animals using Match King bullets before you ask for poof. It's all here. By the way, the jackets on Match Kings are thicker then many of the "so called" hunting bullets. Add a hollow point to that and you have a very good hunting bullet and I have found it to be true at ANY range I have tried the MKs at. Your asking for proof of something that has been proved many times by members of this forum. Maybe you should prove your credibility as a longrange hunter since your on a LR hunting forum?
