Ditto here - on using the 123 gr. SSTs for my first deer and hog hunt in mid-December. Although I have a handload (28.5 gr. 8208XBR with CCI 450 and Hornady brass) that matches and slightly exceeds the Hornady factory loads for accuracy, since I have about 60 rds of factory ammo, I am going to shoot it for my first hunt. Limit is 2 bucks, one doe and 2 hogs a day, so if they are out and moving at least I'll have a chance to wring out the Grendel. I thought about switching to Barnes TTSXs for the very reason cited here - potentially no exit wound or blood trail with the SSTs. However, the deer in South Carolina are likely to be much smaller than the ones you northern Herd members get to shoot.My "6.5" = 24" AA Overwatch upper 1/9 twist, NC based US Tactical lower, standard A4 6 position stock, AR Gold Trigger, JPS SCS buffer, Vortex 6-24 x 50 FFP PST with EBR-2C MOA reticle
