[QUOTE="Westernhuntr, post: 1802729, member: 112648"] I've been hunting with target bullets for years ( including Berger's, yes they're rebranded target bullets). Recently I've seen some really poor results on elk and won't be using any non bonded bullets anymore. One guy I was hunting with last season shot a bull at 800 yards in the shoulder with a 300 Berger EH and it literally blew up impact, he tracked the bull 2 miles the next day! I shot my bull three times at 700 yards last year with Berger 215's, one exploded on the ribs, one pencilled through, and 15 minutes later I was lucky enough to get a third shot in him that put him down. My buddy shot his bull at 700 yards in the shoulder with a 225 ELDM, and it was a disaster! Here's a pic, the shoulder hit by the 300 EH looked the same. If you use these bullets hope to God you get your cross canyon wind call perfect and don't hit anywhere near the shoulder.. [ATTACH=full]168120[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
