[QUOTE="mcdil, post: 2622350, member: 112571"] can1010, Even though the damage is extensive, around the wound is fairly clean from what I can gather, and being that it's all copper, that will be less of an issue anyway from a quality of meat perspective. I'll let the customers speak to that more. You see what I see in the pictures, so I'll leave it at that. Below are some pictures of our prototype 153gr on a couple coyotes out of a 30-06. The prototype didn't open quite as quickly as the production versions in testing, hence the final tweak to perfect the terminal performance window with the production versions, but as can be seen on small animals, broadside, in the seam, with a non-magnum 30, even the prototype expanded extremely well. Performance is identical with the fist sized wound channel. If you look closely, you can see some petal exit wounds by themselves. From a penetration standpoint, we haven't recovered a single thing yet. Some of these shots are on animals that are approaching 1000 lbs or so, with some of those having heavy bone hits, and that's with the 144gr. [/QUOTE]
