We're going to have to make up our minds if the SMK is too tough for hunting or if it fragments too easily.

It can actually be both, have seen a couple antelope shot with SMK's its a toss up whether the bullet opens up explosively or drills through virtually undisturbed.
My grandpa has used some Sierra Palma match bullets on deer as well with the same 50/50 results, match bullets are match bullets and paper doesn't care what the bullet does on impact.
Use a hunting bullet and don't worry about whether the bullet is going to work the way you want.
