bigmo101 Report post Posted May 14, 2017 I'm thinking about giving the 183 smk a try in my 7mm Rem Mag. Anyone tried them out yet? I know Sierra doesn't recommend them for hunting, but has anyone tried them out on deer or elk? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted May 14, 2017 I have a great load worked up in my ride for them. They fly fantastic. I almost had Taylor use them last year on her elk hunt. I know a guy in Montana who uses them on elk with great results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeke-BE Report post Posted May 14, 2017 I hear they kill!! I saw one video on SMK that didn't perform well on a deer shot. But I've seen other videos of (real hunting bullets ) not perform well on well placed shots. I think the odds are in your favor. The last few animals I've killed were on 140 grain Accubond, bullets all passed through leaving a 1" hole on the exit. All 3 didn't go farther then 5 ft but they all bleed internally, no blood pile or much blood on the ground. Glad they didn't run a 1/4 mile or they probably be lost..
