[QUOTE="Troutslayer2, post: 2022768, member: 25190"] I shot a tiny doe at 400 YDS yesterday with a 215, not sure what the bullet did but I had about 2” exit hole through the ribs on the off side and devastating wound. Hit it a little far back on purpose and it appears I still have a little meat damage to one of the front quarters but I haven’t processed it yet. I put my friend on a good muley buck yesterday also, and from 100 YDS she shot him really good with her .250 Savage, unfortunately got some bone in the front shoulder and her 100 gran bullet was not enough medicine. We ended up catching up with him 2 miles later and I had her shoot him with a 215 out of my 300PRC from about 100 YDS. It pulled the rug out from under him. I am definitely more pleased with this projectile than the 168 7MM VLD which is the only other Berger bullet I have taken game with. After 3 shots fired and 3 animals down I think I am sold. I feel like even if the bullet grenades on a high shoulder shot it’s carrying so much energy that it should shock them to death. Might be some meat loss on that deal. [/QUOTE]
