[QUOTE="Michael Courtney, post: 722366, member: 28191"] I've shot a lot of deer with the 85 grain combined technology ballistic silvertip with a muzzle velocity of 3500 fps from a 25-06. This bullet hits deer like a lightning bolt and I bet the 100 NBT at 3400 fps would also. This bullet exits more times than not and when the angle is more quartering we measure 12-15" of penetration. We even published a paper documenting remote brain hemorrhaging from hits to the chest with this bullet: [URL]http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a554690.pdf[/URL] Out of over 100 deer shot with ballistic tips of various calibers and weights, we had a few that had appeared to "blow up" on impact. However, after more careful investigation, we always found that the bullet had hit an intermediate barrier (tree branch, 2x6, etc. en route to the deer and had fragmented on the intermediate barrier.
