[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2621512, member: 7999"] My wife shot a golden wildebeest with it. Slightly quartered to, impacted on the point of the shoulder and went center through the big knuckle bone and stopped in the far lung. Shot was at 180y with muzzle vel of 3540 fps. Pretty impressive performance for a very little bullet. The wildebeest dropped to the shot and then got back up. This worried the PH because these animals rarely drop from a non cns hit and then get back up. Usually this indicates a shot that is too high that just touched the spine and results in a very long tracking to recover the animal. In this case the wildebeest dropped from the initial shock to his whole system, then regained his senses and ran about 75y before bleeding out. I had planned to use the 85g HH for my eland, but we wound up taking some new prototype bullets that wound up getting the nod for everything after that. [/QUOTE]
