[QUOTE="North Idaho Hunter, post: 1753780, member: 73428"] Yep, years ago i witnessed a 222 launching 52 grain Vmax over 3k FPS hit a deer square between ear hole and eyeball. Shot was less then 50 yards. Upon report of the shot the deer went right down (obviously) however when approached it was very apparent this deer wasn’t dead! A quick dispatch with the pistol it was over. upon skinning I found the bullet did not penetrate the skull whatsoever! Basically splashed and completely fragmented with zero penetration. I would never have believed that if I had not seen it myself. [/QUOTE]
