So dont use it and do relate (asdone) why. Here is more ammo for you.

An orphaned calf caribou that I shot the day before the moose in 2014 was taken at 70-80 yards quartering toward. Shot went in immediately behind near shoulder, exited just behind last off side rib, leaving a Nerf- ball size exit hole. And i do mean hole!

The two cows taken the day before at about 200 and 300 yards respectively were both bone hit on entry. The 300 through a rib, the 200 neck shot. Both showed large exit wounds and bloodshot areas, which was largely trimmed out with little meat loss.

So far , I feel that the SST performs to its design intentions. If one doesn't like it's performance there are certainly plenty of others to switch to. And one doesn't really know until personally tried in ones own rifle and circumstances, so all is well with legitimate criticism

I'm not real happy with it under 300 yards, but it works quite well beyond that in my rifle and caliber. This quite likely is subject to the old YMMV. smile
