[QUOTE="westcoasthunter, post: 2014649, member: 71006"] I have 270 wsm and 126HH going 3450fps . I shot a 6x6 bull a few years back. The shot looked clear in the scope at the time but was kinda a odd place now that I think about it. Anyways 450y neck shot dropped like lightning. I was surprised when cutting the neck off I found the bullet . The damage was unreal In the neck. At first I was like that the hell happened . So talked to Steve and we both think I hit a branch before the bullet got to the elk and tumbled into the neck. The next day a friend used my rifle and killed a bull at 430 same bullet. Thru both shoulder exited and had about 2” hole they the lungs went 10 yards . So not the bullets fault at all in my eyes.. and still using hammer and will be loading them in more guns also..
