[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 244778, member: 10178"] BIff, good for you. I told you that 125 Nosler Ballistic Tip was a real killer on deer. I will have to agree with you about deer. When you have killed on the heavy side of 200 like I have you learn a thing or two. A deer has a chest only about a foot thick or less and once a bullet has exited it can't do any more damage to the deer. If the bullet or many fragments makes it to just under the hide on the off side and it has turned everything in the chest cavity to jelly the bullet has done it's work. If you strained the remains of that deers vitals you would most likely find part of the fully expanded jacket of the bullet. The thick base of the jacket holds it together. I have found a few. If you ever decide to use a 25-06 on deer use either of the Sierra 117 gr bullets. They kill deer just like that 30 cal 125 BT. [/QUOTE]
