[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 435283, member: 2693"] Well, they advertise that their bullets open up in the first inch or so on soft tissue hits. I contend that a premium bullet like this needs a lot of resistence to put the smack down on game. Hence, I always recommend bone shots with them. Even when I have't had that opportunity, they still have been devistating for me. One shot comes to mind: a Kansas whitetail at roughly 65 yards, quartering away from me. Entry rear onside lung, exit just anterior to offside shoulder. 168 TSX with H4350. He dropped like he had a piano fall on his head. The bullet must have hit really hard as their was hair everywhere like it had bee blown off, which I guess is exactly what happened. Same finding with a WY mule deer the same year but shot was 165 yards and presenting shot was slightly quartering to me. I actually love those best because you can see the bony prominence of the onside shoulder and square up right on it. It totally ruins their day. [/QUOTE]
