[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1838415, member: 101755"] If I was hunting elk I would have to think the Barnes bullets would at the top of my choices. I used some this past hunting season in a "lowly" 7.62x39 (shot from an AR platform) and have been super impressed in performance and accuracy! Shot a doe head on at 100yds...out of 6 animals that was the only one that didn't pass through. But I had over 20" of penetration and no loss of bullet weight while travelling through bone the whole way.[ATTACH type="full" alt="20200105_182849.jpg"]177338[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200103_092956.jpg"]177339[/ATTACH] I'm pointing to where the bullet stopped... Shot a 120lb class hog almost directly head on and the bullet traveled down the sternum then deflected up through the heart and still exited the body cavity. These bullets are tough to stop! [/QUOTE]
