[QUOTE="Westernhuntr, post: 1853451, member: 112648"] I've taken two bulls with 147 ELDM's, one just under 400 yards the other past 800. The 400 yard shot was very explosive but it just made it to the lungs for a good kill, the entrance wound was the size of a huge grapefruit. The longer shot was right behind the shoulder and it also didn't penetrate deeply. One piece of the fragmented bullet clipped a lung, I had to hunt him down for a follow up shot. They're super accurate but I don't recommend them for big game after my experiences [/QUOTE]
