[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 852818, member: 41442"] on deer yes. Broadside behind the shoulder shots theyd would do like any bullet does and mess up the ribs but who cares. Front shoulder shot theyd do like any premium bullet would and that is destroy both shoulders. But a quartering shot like i was refering they would no doubt take out the front shoulder but very doubtfully would penetrate deap enough to take out a hind leg. Bottom line is cup and core bullets dont destroy more meat then premium bullets. Bullet placement is what causes meat damage and it really doesnt make a big differnce what bullet or even the caliber of the gun. Shoot them in the meat and your going to loose meat. I guess my point in this isnt really which destroys more meat its that you can spend four times more for bullets but your foolling yourself if you think you bought any advantage shooting deer sized game. By the way i shot aprox. 20 deer last season with my 7stw using 150 ballistic tips and was actually surpised that they didnt do any more damage then if i was shooting an 06. With either its like i said, shoot them in the meat and they will certianly ruin it. Shoot behind the shoulder and neither will cause much meat damage.biggest factor othe then bullet placement that will determine how much damage you get is how deaply the bulllet penetrates. [/QUOTE]
