[QUOTE="edge, post: 290879, member: 5030"] Terminal performance is one of those topics guaranteed to cause a fight :) Everyone has their preference and they KNOW that their way is the best way! :) Personally I like two holes in an animal. Some folks like one to "dump" the energy. IMO, If I can put two holes in a broadside animal then if the animal turns as the bullet is on the way and it turns from a quartering shot to a highly quartering necessitating traversing from the hind quarter through the guts, ...hopefully liver and a lung that it will make it that far. A bullet that won't make two holes broadside will just give me a gut shot animal.....dead, maybe not recovered....IMO, IMO! Oh, the other reason I like two holes is because bullets disrupt tissue by traveling fast. The slower it goes the less it disrupts! If a bullet stops inside, then just before it stopped it was going slow...meaning it was not disrupting tissue as much as if it went completely through....IMO, ( and physics ). edge. [/QUOTE]
