[QUOTE="elkhunter1104, post: 1615688, member: 108487"] It was Great man. I am pleased with the performance for sure. The bull at 1104 was broad side and I hit him towards the front of the chest cavity.(the slap echoed through the mountains) He hunkered up and turned just quartering away so I put another one in him just behind rib cage and it went all the way through to the front of the off side rib cage and a small piece of bullet was stuck in hide. Blew the insides up and left probably golf ball size holes in the rib cage. He fell right where he stood. Would have been dead in a matter of minuets after the first shot but I wasn’t gonna chance it. Impact velocity was 2146fps and 1841 ftlbs energy according to my Kestrel. I do have inside rib cage pictures of it but they are on my computer and it quit on me a couple days ago. Hoping apple can retrieve them and many others. The bull at 1245 I also hit twice and he ran down the mountain about 200 yards and never got up. I didn’t get pictures of it. It was after dark when we finally got to him and all night pack out! Impact velocity was 2036fps and 1657 ftlbs. My son also got a whitetail with them at 300 yards and they dropped him in his tracks. Insides were mush. I can’t remember if it passed through or not. I will continue to use them without hesitation on elk or deer. [/QUOTE]
