[QUOTE="twister, post: 1561630, member: 104289"] i put 2 7mm eld x 162 through a good mule deer they didn't expand much at 360 yards and just over 200. The deer was shot 4" behind the the close leg exiting through the offside leg and appearing to get the top of the heart. the offside leg shattered and was hanging by a shred. the deer didn't react to the shot much seemed like i missed but as he walked could see the offside dragging waited over 5 minutes for an opportunity to put the second one through him and he folded up. next day put one through a 80" antelope at 420 yards and it did give a good result for heart lung shot. took 8 slow steps and fell over. maybe 2" exit. so i don't know what to make of this one bad and one good experience. Going to try some 180 bergers or stick with the 6.5x284 [/QUOTE]
