Heard so much on here about the 55gr Hornady SP I just had to try it. Went with some buddies this weekend to their camp to try to thin the doe population. Brought my Tikka with some of these loaded up. Small doe walked out at 60yds, 1 shot and she dropped like a stone! I think I may like this combo!

Like a lot of the other Hornady offerings, that little 55 grain SP is an over-achiever.

Just picked up my 3rd (two sons so everything happens in 3's here) the 2 previous regularly put 3 shots in .5 or less. Fun to shoot, and not hard to look at.
