RE: Hornady SST's
I should have put #4 I still shoot them and like them. Very accurate. I have never had any issue with penetration although I have never shot a big deer. Ou of the deer shot in the vitals only one ran and that was only about 25 yds. The other 3 bang flopped. I am trying some of Hornady's BTSP for my .243 as the sst is not a boat tail. My Dad is working on some loads for those right now.

Better bullets out there. all depends on speed you are shooting them and what you hit. If you only hit ribs it's only gonna bore a hole. You want performance and deer to be DRT...stick with the SP or partition type bullets.
