[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1004139, member: 13632"] To me it looks like the buck was quartering away from you, large entrance close to the shoulder on the left side, bullet blows like he inhaled a grenade then the mangled back 1/4 of the bullet exits the chest a couple ribs forward taking a large section of rib and breaking the second and coming to a stop under the RH shoulder. Entrance is a bit larger than I'd like and much larger than what I've seen typical with a Berger in the 6.5. I have seen a few entrances from Cauterucio bullets and these big Matrix and some other cals that were very high explosive and the entrances showed signs that there was a lot of reflective energy maybe, organ pulled out of the entrance, diaphragm split and grass in the entrance even though hit well forward, ribs broken OUT on the entrance also. I've seen a lot of exits out of the ribs like that and though the bullet did not exit the meat or hide but when we skin them there is a very small exit which a lot of people think is a bullet penciling but since they us a guttless method they never see the horror show in the center. I've honestly only dumped two mulies where they stand, one made a classic mule deer mistake and looked back when he though he was out of range and caught a Barnes right between the head lights, the second was last year my buck to a 140 CEB through the top shoulder angling forward through the spine exiting the center of the neck, he dropped but was very much alive when I got there and required dispatching For the most part I've seen them trot a little ways then fall over shortly after the oil pressure light goes on :D[URL="http://www.longrangehunting.com//www.pinterest.com/pin/create/extension/"][/URL] [/QUOTE]
