[QUOTE="apolarstar, post: 373347, member: 24018"] The bullet was moving slow at that range and still blew up(fragmented) The bullet did not penitrate the front shoulder. It did not exit and I could not find it. This was my personal experience with one bullet. I shot a large whitetail with a 270 silvertip when I was in high school during the last ice age. Anyway that bullet exploded and ruined a good part of two quarters. I have never shot another animal with silvertips. Some would argue it is a great round because it killed. I know the bergers are being touted as explosive, quick and humane. To me that is not a good argument if it is wasting the meat. I do not hunt bears in Alaska. Try to avoid them. I load my .375 at night with 300 grain hornady dangerous game shells however have not tested them. [/QUOTE]
