[QUOTE="LDHunter, post: 1330177, member: 105"] I helped a friend do some ballistic testing on an old hunting lease that they were starting to clear cut once and we were shocked at how well small and lightweight "varmint" bullets fully penetrated small pine trees sometimes effectively destroying them and leaving them nearly cut in half. Don't discount the ability of a light and somewhat fragile bullet to wreak mayhem in tissue and even bone plus it can often kill quickly if placed properly. We are often consumed with terminal ballistics and well we should be but sometimes we forget the utterly devastating effects of ANY projectile at high speed if it hits in a vital zone. All that being said I still spend a lot of time and thought selecting the proper bullet for optimum terminal performance on any game I intend to hunt while NOT counting on the perfect placement of a marginal bullet for the task.
