    Would be using alot of different bullets before I used SSTs. I have never had issues with remington corelokts or fed blue box stopping small or big animals. A guy I hunt with who has shot more sika than most people have had hot dinners uses 168eldm/amax with remington 150 corelokts as a backup. Never has issues recovering animals.
