[QUOTE="liljamt, post: 1137393, member: 85076"] Sorry, I should have been more clear on the details. He took 1 shot at 300 yards, through the shoulder, (I was there so I saw both shots) the doe went down, but still had it's head up looking around, so he shot it a second time with it facing away from him in the back of the head. Looked like the bullet blew up on impact, tearing the whole top of the head off, and some of the bottom jaw. I'm not one to shy away from blood, but it was a pretty gruesome sight. I agree, more expansion is better than none, I am trying to find that perfect bullet that has a thin enough jacket to expand at low velocities, but doesn't explode at fast velocities. BignGreen: What did the bullet do once contacting the shoulder? I am not necessarily targeting a shoulder every shot, I personally like to go for lungs, but it is always nice to know I can break a shoulder if need be. That's why I love the partitions so much.
