[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 2133445, member: 103303"] There are a lot of variables at play, but I have found similar results with 7mm Accubonds on lighter framed deer. I have noted a surprising amount of bloodshot meat given the relatively small permanent wound channel. The 30cal versions have done better for me when it comes to wound channels on deer. Last year I had the first opportunity to try Hammer bullets. After putting 5 deer down, from 100-400yd, I'm going to have trouble using anything else. Too early to draw any conclusions yet, but at the closer ranges, lungs were liquified. As impact velocity dropped off, the liquification factor diminished, but trauma was still extensive. Here are some mule deer lungs. .284" 140gr Absolute Hammer. Impact velocity ~2500fps. [ATTACH]256210[/ATTACH] Seems to offer a good balance of fragmentation and penetration, creating lots of internal trauma while minimizing meat damage. [/QUOTE]
