Guys,

Anyone have any hunting results with the 220 gr SMKs? What sized game and ranges?

Thanks,

Mike

A few headshots on does here at 90 yds, they tend to fall right where the stood. One 68 lb hog, headshot that penetrated the skull from the top and lodged in the 2nd vertabre. All out of a whisper bolt gun with h110.

not my own personal results .. but a friend of my brother was using a Rem mod 7 chambered in 300/221 with a suppressor last fall in Northern Arkansas whitetail hunting. He was using 220 SMK's subsonic.

He shot the first doe heart lung area, bullet completely passed through and caught a second doe grazing behind her through the neck, another complete pass through and the bullet kept going. Both does were DRT.

ETA: I believe he said the shot was about 75 yrds.
