[QUOTE="edge, post: 122097, member: 5030"] [ QUOTE ] SNIP there were some (actually alot) of posts of failures. I was surprised. SNIP [/ QUOTE ] IMO, I only believe bullet failure stories on animals where I witnessed the impact or the animal was recovered, generally due to a second follow-up shot, and a good bullet path autopsy results. If the animal got away, then IMO, it was more likely hunter error and not that the bullet came apart, or did not open up, or a million other reasons that the animal was not recovered. Poor bullet placement results in most lost animals than almost every other reason combined. Heck, almost any bullet can take most game if the hunter does his part.
