Skeeter7mm-I have not tried the sst.After reading several tests on them I am not convinced they are any tougher than the ballistic tip.My luck has been so good with ballistic tips that I am not going to change to save a little money(sst
's are cheaper).I live in alberta and hunt in saskatchewan as well so my hunting conditions are the same as yours.With over thirty head of big game taken ballistic tips have not let me down yet.
