Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Hornady SST

This may not apply to most of you, but in my climate and high-humidity, I've noticed that the SSTs are more prone than others to discoloring from mild tarnishing.

I've killed mulies and whitetails with the 139 gr Heavy Mag in 7mag with devastating results. That being said, I still would rather use, and have with the same results, the IB in the same load. Close shots with the SST (100 and under), have had some fragmenting, although very dead deer.
