[QUOTE="M Rosslee, post: 1194219, member: 94998"] With all the negative comments I must add that I did recover the animal (see zebra below). That's actually what it's all about. I shot this gemsbuck in the chest (many years ago) with a monolythic projectile with a 7mm Remingtion Magnum (175gr bullet) at around 2700fps. The impact was at about 200m. The notable exit wound was after the bullet shattered the opposite side's shoulder and turned to exit on the left. The carcass was an absolute mess with copper and bone fragmentation all over the place. What I'm trying to say is, is us bullet consumers will bitch and moan about everything and then the bullet house will compromise and we'll moan about that too... The crisp point is that that trophy bull went down RIGHT THERE and I can only be thankful for that. The bullets job was to kill its target animal, and that primary objective was achieved. All the satellite factors can only carry that much weight. [/QUOTE]
