[QUOTE="Creedmoor shooter, post: 868450, member: 72601"] The a-max is a soft bullet. Not really meant for hunting. It basically gets half way through the animal and starts blowing apart. Which is devastating but no blood trail is left. Although i did shoot a 312lbs black bear with it and he only ran 17 yds. Bullet went in behind the shoulder and what was left of the bullet(which wasn't much) was in his opposite shoulder. It left his insides a mess but he didn't bleed a drop. I was using a 6.5 140 a-max for that. Don't really recommend it. Just doesn't have any penetration. [/QUOTE]
