Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game 225-gn Sierra Game King at a MV of 2450 fps... your opinion of terminal performance?

I used the 225 GK out of a .35 Whelen on a Texas doe and a feral hog. In both cases, the bullet apparently didn't expand much, though each animal died and was recovered. I sold the rifle to my brother in Missouri and he uses 200 gr. Hornady's. They absolutely flatten deer with exits like the one shown in Jeff_O's picture. Therefore, for deer I'd go with the Hornady.
