[QUOTE="Jinx-), post: 572074, member: 19791"] Yes, bullet did it job, it terminate that buck instantly, but for me who just switch from 308 seems a bit odd when bullet doesn't exit. I shot few bucks from 308 using 165 gr Interlocks and them always had penetration even size of orange, also I used 270WIN with 130 gr SGK which always made an exit. My only worry with this new caliber, what if I have to track my next buck and no exit wounds leave not many clues to go on. The only reason why I chose SPH is flat-base design which is suited to a place where I hunt, previously I used 130 gr SGK from 270 WIN an them didn't expand enough at short ranges unless they encounter thick bone. Basically this is my first experience with SPH and I wanted to share it and see what other people think of it. Will I use it again? Yes I will, but only will aim lower. [/QUOTE]
