Truth is that the 50g Sierra Sp, the 55g Sierra Spt, and the Sierra 55g BTHP are three of the very best yote bullets in a 22 caliber, penetration is the key.
Ackleyman, you mean to tell me....that a plain old conventional construction Sierra will actually take game. Who would have ever thunk. I mean, they have no polymer tip or any other whiz-bag marketing gimmick.
In all honesty, I do like the .224" V-Max for PDs, crows and such. But if you are all concerned with retrieving yotes there are better bullets. And it is hard to beat bullets with a 50 year track record.
