[QUOTE="bomberodevil, post: 1857746, member: 23175"] You’re right, it doesn’t take an advanced degree to look at an exit hole in an animal or to see an animal go down in a short distance from impact or a longer distance (or lost completely). I haven’t (nor am I going to) gone through the last months or years worth of comments to gather data on this forum. But whenever this discussion comes up, members do give their experiences and opinions. I rarely see a member’s experience where a game animal is hit at a good location, by what is commonly known as a hunting bullet, and the bullet did not perform at the member’s expectations. I do see more commonly where a match bullet did not perform to the member’s expectation. i also find it puzzling that you trust the experts in Berger and Federal, but you don’t trust the experts who designed the hunting and match bullets for Nosler, Hornady, and Sierra. These aren’t folks who only make one kind of bullet. They make both hunting and match bullets. They are telling sportsmen that we don’t recommend using match bullets on game, as they aren’t designed to perform on game in a humane manner. But you don’t believe them? [/QUOTE]
