[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 2016586, member: 75779"] they once used the acronym APE. Accuracy Penetration Expansion This is the priority of what a bullet needs to do, to achieve optimal results. Remove any letter and expect poor results. IMO Bergers kill stuff very well if you follow 2 rules: heavy for cartridge bullet weight and make sure the tips aren't clogged. BUT there are many good bullets on the market, so if one doesn't float your boat, move on. FWIW..I work in the OR and have an extensive experience and working knowledge of anatomy/physiology. The previous post from the surgeon is correct. My only caveat is that I believe lung shots kill animals faster than heart shots. Having the heart pump blood out of the system causes the drop in BP quicker. [/QUOTE]
