[QUOTE="wilkup, post: 1235052, member: 74276"] Respectfully, this is only part of the equation. Bullet velocity and diameter make up a portion of what you're trying to describe. Where this gets muddied is when bullet construction is introduced. For instance, the solid copper options that are available verses traditional bonded core options, but then there's also the Bergers that are designed to "grenade" inside the animal and destroy the insides. I don't believe anyone would argue the efficiency that any of these bullet options kill with. It just depends on the game you're attempting to hunt and matching it to the correct bullet. =) All that to say, it is possible to expend "all energy" inside the animal without pass through, but sometimes that's not the best way to kill the hunted animal. I like 2 holes on bears, but elk and deer I'm happy with Bergers blending things internally. [/QUOTE]
