[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 516420, member: 13632"] Preload, your kinda missing some points here, the OP is not hunting African game or even tough game, he's punching whitetails. A bullet can be to hard in this case and just zip though even with high velocity impact, a 105 Berger will go clean through a deer even at a strong quartering shot. A dead broadside shot your only looking at maybe 10in of penetration needed to blow through them. I've seen more than a few whitetails shot with a 105 Berger out of a 243 and in most cases you could nearly reach through the hole, no tracking need just walk up to where they were standing when you pulled the trigger. Does not get any better or quicker than that, unlike the running and tracking show that you will likely get with a bonded bullet. I've had 100% of deer and elk I've hit, other than spine hit, run when hit with an Accubond then very shortly die. The Berger hit animals about 90% are DRT and 10% run, this is on North American deer and elk hit in normal lungs/heart area, one can not ignore this kind of performance!!! [/QUOTE]
