[QUOTE="Solby, post: 887072, member: 73606"] With a 210VLD out of .300 WM I shot a buck at 125 yards. Saw tremendous expansion through the chest right behind the shoulder. Bullet did impact a rib on the way in. This year at 450 same load same gun I shot a buck a little further back right through both lungs. No rib contact looked like a little oversized hole on the exit. The damage in the carcass looked significantly less than the 125 yard shot. My only current conclusion is that hitting bone can cause a berger to do a lot more damage than a clean through and through on a deer sized target. [/QUOTE]
