Has anyone used the Amax for deer hunting. I was under the impression that the Amax was mainly a target-Varmit . Today I was glancing through the Hornady manual and see that is is also recommended for medium game which I take to mean deer and antelope. It may be simular to the Ballistic tip if thats the case.
James, i use a lot of Hornady bullets but i' ve never used the A-Max and i may be wrong but i don' t think it has the inter-loc design so i personally wouldn' t want to use it on deer sized game. However Hornady makes excellent bullets and if they say it will do the job i' m sure it will.
I have used the .308 SST by hornady. at 3000fps out of my 30-06 the killing power is unbelievable at 150 yards a rib shot turned the lungs to jelly. the buck made 4 steps and fell over. this was the tightest group for my Husky 30-06 the Enfield likes 2800fps. it makes a 30-06 behave like a lwhole new gun as far as I am concerned
