[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 2255823, member: 108576"] I have some 152 gr Hammer Hunters for my 308 coming and will be here soon.Also some .224 52 gr Hammer Hunters.I trust people on this forum more that that guy. This guy didn't change my mind.Any bullet ever made can fail under the right conditions. In 1974 I shot a cow elk at 388 yards broadside,aimed at shoulder crease and the 180 gr Nosler Partition ended up in her neck,dead as a door knob! Muscle close to a major bone is denser than meat away from bone and that can make a difference.If the animal was moving could influence a bullet to take a different path,also if you hit a rib or any other bone could influence a bullets path. I still have Partitions on hand so it did not matter to me that 1 on 38 elk did not have a straight exit. Still a Hammer fan! [/QUOTE]
