    I have used the 124 grain Hammer Hunter in a 6.5prc, a 6.5x55 and my son's .260. Worked very well in all of them.

    150g Sierra Pro Hunters are really good projectiles on deer. If your not killing animals efficiently with them, you need to look beyond your rifle and projectile, and start looking at yourself.
