When I got my Tikka in a Sweede, I called Sierra to get some
Data for the 140 Gameking. No modern data, but, I was told
their 120 would be better. The 140 would expand, but I would get
better results with a 120. Well... I had the Gamekings, and everybody
knows about the 6.5 and heavier bullets.
1 rodeo, a deer shot 5 times. Lucky, it didn't do much damage.
At least from a meat perspective.
2 deer hit, lost. Who knows, but that's unusual for me.
Bought 140BT's (slow learner ?). Results weren't much
more impressive. I hate hunting for shot deer.
So, I got a brilliant flipping idea. I bought some Sierra 120 Pro-Hunters..
They make deer sick. A decent amount of damage, and quick endings.
Should finally break out the 264.
I bet with some more smoke, those 140s would act different.
