[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1361761"] I just shot anothet bull this year with my 6.5 RSAUM, this time with the 147 ELD-M bullet and wanted to share the results. The velocity was 3050, range 350 yards, the shot was uphill and I hit him a little high behind the shoulder. The bullet created a massive entrance wound and travelled upward blowing through the spine and lodging in the fur. The retained bullet weight was 60 grains, and the bull dropped instantly. I was impressed with the size of the entrance wound, it actually looked like a large exit wound which is a little concerning.. I'm thinking the bullet expanded extremely rapidly, maybe too rapidly. A shoulder hit on an elk would probably not be good at all with this bullet so shoot accordingly. Tried posting a photo but it won't work, I'll try adding one tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
