[QUOTE="Schw15, post: 2940971, member: 123999"] I made the switch a few years ago to solids. Pva bullets and hammers but pva shot better and was super impressed with performance and not worrying about meat loss. This year I got messed up and just been hunting with my target rifle that weighs 24 pounds haha 30 nosler shooting the berger 220 lrht bullets. Shot a doe antelope at 420 and couldn't ask for a better performance from a bullet antelope dropped in a blink of an eye no meat loss. My buck deer was at around 80ish maybe 90 yards I didn't use the rangfinder because he was so close. Shot him behind shoulder at an angle and he went maybe 10 yards if that. Great performance but like yours I found the main bullet and small pieces on back side ribs but exploded in animal working great. I did lose some meat on front shoulder not all bullet fault because I placed it to close I take blame. But for a high explosive bullet at that range I was super impressed and starting to love these bullets. I go bull elk hunting November 22 and using same bullet. I'm fully confident in it and usually where I hunt I shoot 300 to 800 yards [/QUOTE]
