[QUOTE="GLTaylor, post: 2037054, member: 111593"] Maybe I ought to grump more often. Got a nice 8 pt this morning with the 7 RUM and 131 gr Hammer at ~3500 fps. Sharp quartering facing me at 347 yds. Bullet entered just inside his rt front shoulder. One fragment exited past his last rt rib, one exited through his backbone about 2/3 back (and took out 2" of backstraps & backbone), 3rd exited past rear of left ribs and bullet travelled all the way through the full length of his body. Found my first Hammer in 24 deer killed. It went through his left ham and lodged beneath the hide at his rump. Now that's performance and penetration! No meat destroyed and he never took a step😁 [/QUOTE]
