[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1743363, member: 87243"] My only issue is that I used the 147 to take 12 or 13 animals from antelope to elk, and the bullet failed in 3 of those cases, I learned the hard way and nearly lost an elk. For a bullet to be deemed a good hunting bullet, it doesn't have to just kill something, an FMJ could create an exit like that if placed through bone or if it wasn't very stable, but it needs to do it consistently. I see 1 caribou killed with acceptable performance. Excellent!! I saw 1 elk killed with acceptable performance on another thread with the 135. Awesome!! Show me 15-20 more without a bullet failure, and I will get excited for sure. [/QUOTE]
