[QUOTE="elkcraz1, post: 899698, member: 72338"] They work great on deer! We have shot 2 deer out of a 280ai with them and they perform great. Not so great on elk. A body of mine shot a spike elk at 70 yards with the 280ai, high shoulder shot and the bullet blew up on impact. No penetration at all. This year a friend shot a six point bull with a 300wsm at 350 yards in the shoulder same thing. Another spike was shot this year with the same 300wsm by another friend at 25 yards, the bull dropped and on there way up to him the bull jumped up and took off in thick brush and they spent a couple hours looking before they ran into him and put another one in him. Three different bulls and they all blew up. Not sure if this helps at all, just are experiences with them. haven't done anything with a 338 or pushed them past a 1000 shooting the 280ai or the 300wsm. [/QUOTE]
