[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 1026825, member: 9172"] I think that you will almost always loose that 40 - 50%, unless you are shooting at 4 digit distances. This 300 Grain EH was recovered from a last day "meet buck" last season (my 1st year with my 338 EDGE). The animal was shot head on in the brisket from about 650 and the bullet was recovered just on the inside hide of the rear 1/4. The two other animals shot that year had full penatration with good sized exit wounds, and both were over 600 yards.. I realize that elk and deer are a night and day comparo, so take this with that in mind. [/QUOTE]
