Guess the projectile??

Since there seems to be a lot of my bullet vs your bullet going on lately I though it would be fun to see what you think based on a picture of the animal during cutting. We kill game with a wide variety of stuff so it's interesting to see what happens
First batter up is a tasty morsel of the whitetail variety. I'll get the next pic a little bigger but the entire side of it is jello and blood shot!!

You know you are shooting long range when the CheyTac team that's always on History Channel ranges the target and starts sobbing.

Back in the day I've duplicated that pic many times until I learned to back off at least 250 yards.

270 Win/130 Sierra spbt/58.5 gr RL-22/3190 FPS.

I suppose other bullets do the same thing but I have the copyright on this one.
