[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2008913, member: 87243"] This is every angle of the bullet, there is only a very small abrasion near the front just under the broken petal, but it is minor. There is however one petal broken off, if you look at the last photo of the front, there should be 5 petals, there are only 4. My guess is maybe that petal is what clipped the vertebrae? However there is logic in your theory, I wish I would have taken more time inspecting and photos of the wound, but I was over 2.5 miles back in fighting daylight, and the trail back went through a bears home, tons of bear scat and a relatively fresh elk carcass, and I didn't want to go through there at night.
