    I used it this winter in my .270 on my deer hunt. It worked great, even took one deer at 330 yards and had a through and through.

    Thanks for the replies. I'm going to Texas to hunt turkeys in April, and after my turkey is in the bag I can hunt hogs. I'm going to take my .30-06 as well as my turkey gun so I can test the GMX on the biggest hog I can find. If I shoot him right in the shield and the bullet exits I know it will do fine in Africa.
    I have a copy of the Perfect Shot and it helped me out a lot before my first safari.
