[QUOTE="Swamplord, post: 1151559, member: 2460"] Bullet smacked a rib so hard on the entry side it shattered one next to it but that didn't stop the bullet, it plowed through shredding the lungs and ended up 1/2" from exiting the offside shoulder .... the entire chest cavity was filled with a frothy mess indicating it was an instantaneous kill from the bullet eruption inside ....... gonna be some serious long range hunting bullets, no hp to get plugged up and pencil through, these baby's will open up when that tip gets shoved back This bullet is more of a long range hunting type of bullet where guaranteed expansion is greatly desired, given the velocity at impact and the penetration the bullet achieved I would say it performed admirably, sure the recovered bullet doesn't look like a pretty AFrame but it did the exact same thing ........ I will say that a full on shoulder bone hit may have shown a different result but why would anybody shoulder punch a moose at close range ? You have a huge target area to aim at that range for precise placement of bullet, we spend countless hours working on load developement to create ammo with the nth degree of accuracy and plenty of range time to get proficient with the rifle system and ammo , the bullet has no reason to go anywhere but just behind the shoulder into the boiler room for an immediate shut down of the operating system ...
