[QUOTE="luvcatchingbass, post: 191829, member: 1979"] I have no experience with the Amax but the buck in my avatar dropped to 140gr barnes match burner (6.5-284), they worked but not sure I would do it again. 100yd shot just behind the right shoulder and should have busted up the left shoulder, deer ran about 25yd and went down, then back up, then back down and on the 3rd time up hit him in the same spot to flatten him. There was no exit from the bullets and when I skinned him the entrance holes were 1-2" apart from each other and recovered some of the jacket, messed up the vitals something fierce and the left shoulder was full of copper and lead.
