Fox man, I called Hornady's customer support line several months ago and asked their opinion on the A MAX as hunting bullet. The support technician I talked to said, unequivocally, that "Hornady does not recommend the A MAX bullets for hunting because of their unpredictable expansion characteristics. They were made for target shooting." Before being told this by Hornady, I had shot a couple of small predators, fox, raccoon and coyote, with the A MAX, and the bullets punched nice, neat, FMJ-like holes in them. My personal preference is the V MAX, although it can very destructive if you are a hide hunter.
