[QUOTE="Marine sniper, post: 2144757, member: 4768"] Deer are so easy to kill that I don't think you could shoot one with any .338 caliber bullet and have it not die. The issue with Berger's is their ability to break heavy bones at long distance. If you put a Berger into the ribs it is going to have terrific results. IMO you run a risk if you hit an elk in the front shoulders and don't break both of them. The most penetration I have ever gotten with a .30 caliber 210 Berger was about 12 inches. As far as I know they always explode- that is not always the best scenario. [/QUOTE]
