[QUOTE="Far North Hunter, post: 2941496, member: 110640"] My first kill using a Berger classic hunter was yesterday. It was a 130 grain out of my 260AI. The whitetail buck forced me to take 210 degree flank shot. All I could see was the protruding portion of his abdomen. The bullet ran true and entered just forward of his entrails and proceeded into the vitals. The 10 point buck hit the ground like he’d been hit by lightning. Not a twitch. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen as immediate a kill. When I open the deer I was in awe. Every vital organ was mush. The bullet did not exit. I did find a small portion of the bullets base, no lead, against the aft rib cage. That situation confirmed the many comments of the blog contributors, shot placement can give DRT results. A spine, hind quarter or shoulder shot is going to result in significant meat loss [/QUOTE]
