[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1763321"] I started a thread, Recovered Bullet Photo Gallery, as while back. There are a few match bullets there as I recall and they killed well. [URL]https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/recovered-bullet-photo-gallery.226322/[/URL] My wife squarely hit a cow elk in the shoulder with a GMX, which expanded and traversed across the lungs and yet the thing ran 60 yards. I think a good, killing vital shot will still allow for some running. Anything hitting the spine, heart or head will stop an animal faster but will kill no more effectively, IMO. The nature of the expansion on a dead critter, from a recovered bullet, is why I wanted to start that thread, as opposed to purely discussing terminal performance. I use Berger VLDs which some call a match bullet, but have no specific hunting experience with a Match King or other specific match bullet. [/QUOTE]
