I like them, I shoot them in my 338 Win Mag., havnt shot any animals with the 338 yet. The 225gr. SST's shoot better in my 338 than 225gr. Nosler Accubond's do. I also use them in my 280, they shoot excellent in it, I killed my deer this year with them, using a 154gr. SST, devastating on deer, like Big Z said.
