[QUOTE="X-man, post: 801342, member: 8416"] My buddy killed a black bear at 760ish (I think it was 766) with the same bullet and 49.5 grain of H4350. He hit the bear broadside hitting only lungs (missed the ribs even) and the bullet expanded perfectly....I was pretty concerned bout expansion and had my 338 pointed at it just in case. The bear folded on impact. Thought you might like to know that. :) I don't normally like pea shooters for long rang hunting, but the little 6.5 284 and the Barnes kills very well. My buddy has also killed elk (under 50 yards) and moose with the same combo. IIRC the moose was 635ish and the LRX went thru both shoulders and kept on going. He got 750 pounds of meat from the moose so not bad for a pea shooter! :) [/QUOTE]
