[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 1736209, member: 61747"] So many people don't understand terminal ballistics. Velocity and bullet design put energy on target vs through the target. I don't understand why people struggle with the concept. A pile of elk in my circle have been killed with the 140-143 grain bullets. That's berger, nosler, and Hornady and with creedmoor's. Congrats to your boy. My neighbor killed a 370 bull in Wyoming a week ago with a 143. 1 and done within a couple feet of the impact. [/QUOTE]
