I load 150gr sst's over 46grs of re-15 in win brass with a wlr primer. Shoots 1/2 moa all day long in my kimber montana. Great deer boolit....no bueno on wild hog shoulders though.
What's your experience with the SST's on hogs? I found that my 6.5-284, shooting 140 gr. SST's at 2,950 fps, would drill a 300# boar hog right thru the head at 225 yds. In and out, right behind the ear, through his spine. Now, I've had 180 gr. NBT's at 3,000+ from a .300 Win Mag, blow up on a hog's head, leaving a gaping wound on the intake side, something like I imagine a Claymore mine would do. It has been my impression that the SST's were less frangible than the NBT's. That's why I use the heavier NBT's in my .300 Win Mag, thinking that slower, heavier bullets wouldn't blow up so bad. The main reason I keep using them is the high B.C. (.507) and extreme accuracy in that gun.
