[QUOTE="proload, post: 516580, member: 34261"] Agreed. You obviously didn't read the "... good solid blood trail [U]if something goes wrong[/U] with the shot ..." Agreed about DRT. Dead is dead right .... But if the shot is bad [I](and I know very few people that have not had a bad shot at game for one reason or another ... including unexpected bullet failure)[/I], then with bullets that don't create a good blood trail you've got very little to work with .... that was my point. I am not hammering the Bergers .... there are many bullets with the same high velocity terminal ballistics performance, and when they hit the right area, they are devastating, the shrapnel effect is nothing short of sublime .... but if you fire a bad shot or something happens at the moment that you fire the shot, and the bullet miss the vitals .... you're left with very little to work with. Agreed .... but personally I would still prefer a bullets that will create an exit wound if it was to fail. [/QUOTE]
