    I see reloaders have some monolithic jobies,they seem to kill fine as my mate shot a deer at 1275 through the base of the neck through the chest cavity and exited unexpanded but i guess the shock and .5 hole it didnt go far perhaps 10 m.
    Amax would be nice but is it worth the grief.
    I can definitley get the lapua just have to buy 400!
