    Yep, I reckon they will be sweet for animals as far as I am happy too shoot and I could use Amax's on steel and paper. I am not sure if I trust the A max that fast, up close on a stag if I have to body shoot.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    Hi mate ,
    I am hoping to get out to Christen my rifle on the Reds next weekend - if i have any luck i will let you fellas know how them 162s perform!
    I have shot Roe and Red with my 6.5-55 improved and 123 A-maxs and had great results as i did with the 6.5-284 and 140 A-maxs ( when i owned one ) .
    Thanks to forums like this i was able to get some info on what powder to use when testing me new 280 Ack - hence trying Reloader 22 first!!
    Thanks fellas
