RE: Sierra Gamekings.
Game Kings sure seem to shed the jackets. A guy the other day showed me a bunch of the jackets that he recovered from Whitetails. The Pro-Hunter is a tougher bullet and I have used many weights of them for all kinds of hunting. On a simular note, he showed me several recovered Speer Mag Tips that were tight in the jackets and mushroomed perfectly. This was impressive as all the bullets that he had recovered were fired from a 30-30 T/C G2. One Speer was recovered from a Caribou that he dropped at about 225 yards. These are just starting out at 2100 fps and I couldn't believe that the Game Kings shed their jackets at these velocities. The Game kings were BT's I believe.
The Mag tips are 150 grain. The expansion was about the same on some that he recovered from a 308 so evidently the Speer Mag tip performs well at a wide range of velocities. Has anyone else had expierence with the Mag-Tips?
