123 gr SMK vs Noz CC - on deer/hogs vs 129 SST ????
I shot a bottle of water with Nosler CC and it acted like a FMJ. diameter size hole in and out. Not very scientific but for the price difference I like the 120 grain Sierra Prohunter bullet for a cheaper hunting bullet.
None of the target bullets like the smk, cc, or even amax are designed for hunting. Their jackets are too thin. Stick with the hunting bullets like tge sst, ballistic tip, accubond, barnes etc for hunting. You can kill deer with those target bullets, you can also kill them with a .22...
People have had luck with target bullets on light skinned game if they keep the bullet out of heavy bone and you can get pretty nice hunting bullets often cheaper than he match bullets like the sierra game king though you will have to rezero the new 123 sst seems like it should have virtually the same performance as the amax
Match king is a great target bullet but it is not a hunting bullet, I like Sierra bullets but the BC is not great on their pro hunter better off with Hornady SST or Amax
