[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1751928, member: 87243"] I loaded up the 156's for a buddy's creed and he killed and antelope with it, and I have either harvested myself or been there for 11 antelope, 3 deer, and 2 elk with the 156's. While the elk were not taken with a creed at under 500, they were taken with a .260 AI at over 800. 840 and 865 in fact. There was another taken at 910 from the same group with the 170 EOL out of a .270 Sherman, but that is for a different thread. One was a high shoulder hit, and bang flop, destroyed lungs. The other was a heart shot and it went about 8 yards from where it was standing and piled up, destroyed lungs and heart. Muzzle velocity of 2940, energy at impact was in the 1450 ft-lb range. This is what we saw inside the large cows. Video link so you can see what was left of the lungs. Make your own conclusions....
