[QUOTE="Lapua guy, post: 484849, member: 28489"] Ok, not trying to flame, just trying to understand. So you put four rounds of 180 gr Bergers into a Bull Elk and ever one failed to penetrate with effect. Not one past through both lungs. Do I have this right? It sounds like that if it didn't run after the first shot, you hit him pretty good and the very least broke him enough to not run off. I have seen Bulls wobble around for a spell before dying, but usually if you have a hit that doesn't penetrate, they run off, especially when you are shooting close range like that. But to say 4 shots and it didn't even penetrate through a set of lungs, well I have never seen that. Again, I haven't seen it all. That must have been crazy to see in person. [/QUOTE]
