[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1498127"] Wow thanks for the detailed testing that was impressive! I've shot two bulls with the 147 from my 6.5 saum, The first was at 350 yards and it was extremely explosive, too explosive in my opinion. I was lucky it didn't hit the shoulder, instant kill. I just shot a bull at 940 yards with the same set up and this time it appears the bullet expanded very little. The bullet blew through the shoulder and penetrated the top of the lungs, it was a steep upward angle and luckily the bullet shattered the spine. There was very little damage to the lungs just a hole through them.. I think you're on to something, expansion might be inadequate at long range. Do you mind sharing you're 260 ai load data? you're getting the same performance as my saum! [/QUOTE]
