    I've been using the game king in all my 30 caliber's including .308 30-06 and 300 win mag and 300 weatherby mag for 35 years. I.ve shot many whitetail with my 308 at 400 plus yards and dropped them in their tracks 99% of the time. I love the gameking HBTP!!!!! Loaded my buddy some 90 grain game kings for his 25-06,He's killed 2 deer and a Hog at 100yards He shot the hog in the right eye and the bullet exited in behind the left shoulder. Awsome kill!!!

    The Gamekings are wicked bad for killing.
    The only thing I will say, is that they tend to cause A LOT of damage if you don't hit pure lungs. If your going to break shoulders, you will ruin a bunch of meat. Otherwise they will kill what you point them at, especially in the 6.5's. Those things penetrate like a banshee.
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.
