    Sierra GameChanger, anybody using?

    Hi all, I've got a very picky kimber in 308 and all it likes off the shelf is the sako loaded ammunition with the sierra gamechanger projectiles. I've read these are quite a tough projectile with thick copper walls and a lead alloy core, not recommended to be used at a distance with impact velocities below 1900fps. Last weekend I shot a red hind at a distance boarding that 1900fps lower limit and results showed it still did a heap of damage. The shot was behind the shoulder, didn't hit any major bones other than ribs. Now I know there's a million different variables but I am curious to hear other people's experiences with these projectiles at that lower end of impact speed. I'd love to be able to push them to distances a touch further and know they'll still open up and work at 1800fps. Cheers
