I ended up with a box of sierra 7mm 175 gr spbt gamekings a little bit ago.
I loaded a few up with a tried load in my 7mm rem mag and they of course at 2900 fps, shot clover leaf groups from the rifle.
Now I have always had sierras turn up stellar accuracy, but have never really used them on big game, not even a deer. Sierra touts this gameking with heavy jacket, hard core. No better bullet for heavy game...
My clay bank test shows they are rather soft @100 yards, turning completely inside out. Not really throwing there core but just smearing it to oblivion. My horn 175 gr sp interlocks came out looking much better and bored deeper to boot.
Looks like the sierra may need a few 'hundred yards more to work better on larger than coyote game.
I'm new so to say, to using sierras on big game... Any on-game use with the sierra 7mm 175 gr gameking would be much appriciated.
