[QUOTE="biff's reloading, post: 244770, member: 6078"] well, monday i got a dose of "penetration", but tonight i got a dose of "explosion". the 125 hit her in the elbow, and exploded thru the chest. it jellied the lungs, and top of heart, and shrapnel pierced all the way to the hide above the spine, and down to the breast plate. no exit. no need. the hide was stretched off the rib cage on the far side, and there was no bullet left:D love it. the doe made one long stride and fell on her nose. 164 lb doe. i cannot imagine a scenerio where this bullet could not do the job. at least for deer, this is what ill be using from now on. im sure there are times when a little more penetration would be helpful, but im not bear hunting.... a deer is only about 12" wide, so any more than 12" of penetration seems a waste...
