[QUOTE="hunter0925, post: 2011077, member: 89819"] I am done also. Shot a pronghorn buck at 711 yards with a 180 hybrid out of my 280ai. Perfect shot, directly behind the shoulder. The bullet blew up on impact. The buck ran a circle and faced dead away from me so I put one straight up the chute. He dropped then. Killed a pronghorn doe at 535. She turned at the shot and I hit her back through the ham (my fault) and the bullet penetrated completely leaving a silver dollar exit after passing through the femur. Shot her a second time to finish the job and once again silver dollar exit with a perfect behind the shoulder shot. Killed a mule deer, running at 250. First bullet hit back in the gut (not proud of any of these shots btw) and penciled through, second shot through the neck and penciled through with the buck still running, last shot rear ham grenading on the femur and nearly severing the leg. The bullet was entirely to unpredictable for me to continue hunting with it. It sucks because they shot great (2 inch at 500) but I can't handle penciling and exploding. [/QUOTE]
