[QUOTE="kraky, post: 121290, member: 180"] Fishry---any chance on the bullet hitting something on the way to the animal to get the tip opening up a bit? Also on the leg shot that just doesn't seem possible not to penetrate at that speed....even if the bullet were made of balsam wood. Is it possible the leg of the animal turned as the bullet impacted and there was a deflection of the bullet off the bone?? Re shooting small animals and getting big wound channels. I've seen this even with partitions and other tough bullets. My theory is the animal kind of caves in and tissues move with the bullet as it passes through causing alot of meat/tissue destruction. We shoot porcupines here in Wis during deer season and they sometimes look like they got hit with a semi truck. But I sure have to admit your experience would have me puzzled. [/QUOTE]
