[QUOTE="Priley, post: 2698483, member: 99018"] Yes this is a thread on long range bullets up close but I said Berger bullets will kill at both long and close ranges. #1 why not shoot the shoulder? Common sense. Behind the shoulder is the best place to hit any animal to put it down quickly whether a high shoulder or low shoulder the bullet will take out the internal organs. #2 I don't care if it's 30 yards or 1200 yards I aim for the same place. Usually high shoulder. #3 all over 1800 fps. #4 75 yard opened up around an inch in. The longer shots usually drive a little deeper before opening1 1/2 to 2 inches #5 Berger bullets rarely exit which is what I want. I want all the energy from my bullet to be used up inside the animal which is how Berger bullets are made. #6 The insides were destroyed. Dead is dead..... #7 same as #6 #8 Never had a Berger bullet tumble. Berger bullets are designed to come apart as they penetrate destroying tissue with hydrostatic shock. I have seen video's however on hammer bullets tumbling in gel tests. [/QUOTE]
