[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 814368, member: 22069"] Thanks for posting your pics. Very educational! I have read of some hunters in Africa using solids on some of the really small plains game animals there (dik-dik for example) to prevent that sort of situation. In the smaller, lighter, faster calibers that I have (.264WM and 6.5-284), I have been developing a long range load and a short range load in an attempt to prevent carnage at shorter ranges. I never would have expected the same issue with the larger stuff. I am really interested in the Savage .338 Lapuas and have about convinced myself to buy one at some point. I am thinking that, if I were to go that route, it might be a good idea to develop a short range load with a Barnes and a long range load with a Berger. Interesting stuff... [/QUOTE]
