Obviously the SST is a hunting bullet & the AMAX is a match round. They both have boat tails, a polymer tip and a secant ogive. The BC of the AMAX is .495 vs. .480 for the SST.

How would the SST compare to the AMAX from a accuracy perspective if the same care was taken in loading it?

The 180gr Interbonds which are supposed to be the bonded replica of the sst's shot well in my win mag.

Picture below is 4 shots at 500 yards with the Interbonds. There were 5 total but one went over the shoulder but at that point clearly is not the result of the bullet.

Here's 4 shots at 635 yards. Three grouped well and there's one hit the bottom circle.
