[QUOTE="dfanonymous, post: 1775079, member: 97050"] I mean, technically it IS a do all bullet, as it killed your deer dead at 32 yards as much as it does mine at 600+. Unfortunately it’s (ELD-X) construction isn’t designed to handle impact at that velocity so hence why it “blew up” but that doesn’t make it any less lethal. The problem I see is that everyone seems to have a “requirement” as to what they believe is “suppose to happen” or is more lethal, like pass through vs energy dump (hydrostatic shock) and/or tissue shock. I’ve noticed that people forget this is a long range shooting/hunting forum. It makes sense that the mass would be interested in a bullets performance at long range, which the eld and vld series provide. In this sense, it’s reasonable to conclude that one persons hunting experience doesn’t align with another’s as far as the “requirements” are concerned and I usually trust that they as a hunter did the research that brought them to do what is best for their situation as nothing in guns, trucks, or people is universal.
