[QUOTE="jweigel, post: 1231907, member: 72021"] I have shot a cow elk each of the last three years. 168 VLD out of 7RM three years ago. 180 VLD out of my 7STW last year, and a 195VLD out of my STW last week. Only had a pass through and even then it was just the lead....the copper jacket was stuck on the inside of the hide. Most times the bullet breaks up in side the animal, maybe hitting a rib on the way in. Even poorly placed shots to far back are very lethal. I also have a 180 VLD load pushing just over 3000 in my 7RM. Deadly accurate. jjw ND [/QUOTE]
