[QUOTE="JMPrecision, post: 2282644, member: 110178"] Complete jacket seperation , jacket weight is 69.1 grs. It appears upset and energy dump started about 4 - 5 inches and continued an additional 11 to 13 inches (each jug is 5.5) before the jacket exited alone at a total of 18 inches of penetration. So what does this mean? In my assumption if I stay off the shoulder I should be fine. But the ELD-X i feel will seperate and possibly not make it to both lungs IF i encounter heavy bone. And i believe it takes a double lung to put them down within a trackable distance with only an entrance hole. But to be fair my favorite 180 AB was caught in the 4 jug with considerably less hydrostatic damage to jugs 2 and 3. Pretty much a 2 inch hole thru and thru. Weighing 112.7 grain [ATTACH type="full" alt="16312251338991983404014822096314.jpg"]296839[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
