swede, I wasn't going to go "negative" on your Game Kings, but I had worse experiances than Klikitarik, only with 300's from a .375 H&H.Three animals shot, two animals recovered. One a small Mule Deer with no exit, didn't locate bullet. The other a decent Black Bear at 80 yrds., no bones hit(entered between ribs)only found an empty jacket inside off-side lung. Yes, these animals were killed, but I expected more from a 300 grain bullet at H&H velocities. Soon went to Hornady's,then to Barnes' around '90 or '91, when I got my AI. I hope whatever you choose works well for you!! memtb


You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong." -Bob Hagel
