[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 2481232, member: 13632"] This isn't a bullet thing especially on the off side, the issue is the main blood supply to the shoulder and how the shoulder muscle groups lay. You almost can't hit the shoulder without blowing the largest blood vessel right in the center then that lays in a spot that pressures up so many seams it horrifying BUT it's not in the meat and most is just fine. In 2500+ elk cut I've lost a whole shoulder only a few times and they are always the on side shoulder with multiple hits, the off side often looks the worst but that's due to so many bullets will stay in the of side or just barely make it through so the off side pressures up with blood more often. They look a mess but a sharp knife and knowing the seams about 5 min saves a lot of elk meat. Being a one time wild game processor I shoot Bergers and Hammers as the best combination of meat loss and lethality, not to say you won't get an odd ball but over thousands of animals the patterns stand out.
