I haven't shot the SSTs into game so take it for what it's worth, but it's probably the one bullet I would not use on anything. They completely blow apart on anything I've shot at (soft rotting wood, stumps, phone books, etc). The 185 TTSX has been the easiest to get to shoot and they look like a magazine commercial no matter what I shoot them into. Another bullet that has pleasantly surprised me is the 200 Hot Cor.
