How is the accuracy of the SST vs the Amax?
Any on deer reports of either?

Thanks

I got good accuracy from both, the Amax was better. I suggest you look hard at the Lapua Scenar 123 - better BC, accuracy equal to or better than the Amax.

Good advice.

Pat (Scenarshooter) sure believes in them. They have a real thin jacket, but must have a harder lead alloy than some of the others, as they seem to perform pretty consistently on game.

My Shilen/98 FN, 6.5x55 prefers 139 gr. and 155 gr. Scenars. I'm working up load for my 7mm-08 and 6.5 Creedmoor, using a variety of bullets, will report.
