Thoughts on Hornady 95gr SST for Whitetail Hunting
#3
I have not shot the 95 gr SST.  What I have shot includes the 103 GR ELDX, 108 GR Berger Elite hunter, 87 Gr Absolute Hammer & 90 GR CX. I prefer a projectile that has high retained weight. 103 GR ELDX did not quite live up to my standards when testing w water jugs to catch a bullet . If you Are satisfied with the SST offerings I expect you would like the 103 GR ELDX.

Suppose I had marginal faith on expansion with the Elite hunter on my first deer hunt with my 22" CZ527. Four years ago on the 2nd day of season I had an opportunity on a large bodied Whitetail at 254 yards. High shoulder shot was chosen, resulted in DRT results with the 108 gr Elite hunter.

Last 3 years I opted for the all copper 87 gh Hammer absolute hunter & the 90 GR CX with favorable results.
