[QUOTE="vancewalker007, post: 2361935, member: 66917"] Its the classic penciling effect of very hard bullets. This was happening to the original Barnes bullets years ago and people lost a lot of game using them. They have improved the mushrooming effect with the larger deeper hollow point but obviously your impact velocity is exceeding the strength of the material in the bullet. In your rifle's case a bonded bullet might be a better choice that can emit a larger shockwave. Your bullet should have liquified that liver at that close range as liver is very soft tissue. What your bullet did was like shooting a deer with a field point using archery. A deer will not go far on a destroyed liver. [/QUOTE]
