JScottRupp,

<br>The matchking I used at @70 yards did not explode or "pencil" thru. The wound channel looked like any other wound channel. I was using the 175 gr SMK fired from a 308 on a PA whitetail. In cutting in half the nosler and comparing them to the matchking the noslers have a much thinner wall than the matchking.

<br>You have the right idea on the practice thing. Even when you know you can do what you intend, you need to keep on practicing to keep you at that level!!!

<br>Unfortunatly we have had subzero temps as of late and I havn't been able to get out and squeeze the trigger.... needless to say the trigger finger is gettin' itchy
