Sierra Gamekings?

[broey1]

Hey all, I need a quick opinion on something. I' ve used 140 gr core-lokts in my .260 rem for the past few seasons with good results.... no complaints. I recently bought a box of Federal' s Sierra Gamekings in 140 gr and they shoot a little better out of the gun at 200 yards. 100 yards they do equally well. Anyway, I was thinking about the gamekings this year for deer, but then I heard some people saying that while they make for accuracy the on game performance isn' t all that great....... any opinions??? Any experience with sierras in general?

The gamekings have been around a long time and have taken countless deer, they will do just fine on deer size game. That' s all my uncle shoots deer with out of his 7mm mag.

took a nice 5 pointer this year using 165gr. sierra gamekings out of my 30-06sprg. nice hole and nice big blood trails. even though i did not see a sign of the deer being hit till about 10yds after he left the initial hit.

They will work well on deer. Good shooting!!

they' re at least as good as the Remington Core Locks.....but I' d prefer the Hornady interlock bullets

I use them in all my rifles and have had consistant performance at the range, and good results in the field. I won' t use anything else.
