[QUOTE="CogburnR, post: 626982, member: 29174"] One time I did hit a big buck antelope in the rear haunch with a 85g HPBT Sierra GK. It looked like somebody took a chainsaw and whacked off the lower leg leaving a 8" oval stump. The lower leg was completely gone. Usually I try to hit the heart-lungs and it typically leaves a 50cent piece exit hole. The 243 doesn't leave nearly as big of holes as my 270WSM does with the 140g HPBT Sierra GK. you can usually put your fist in those holes right into the space that used to have a heart and lungs in them.
