[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2704963, member: 101791"] I had that experience 40 years ago with with Nosler Partition bullet in a 25/06 with a 100gr. It did go through, but blood shot one entire side of the deer. The animal was about 40yds away. I change to Nosler solid base 120gr bullet in that rifle. Never had that problem again. I also used 165gr in my 308 NM @ 3300fps from very close to over 500yds and didn't have that problem either. Again used 200gr Nosler in my 338WM @ 3200fps from close to 500yds and not have that problem. The other is I got better accuracy too. The other is I normally don't shoulder shot. I shot heart lung shots. I have driven those bullets from front to back and back to front. Not much in bloodshot either. The other is I don't use target bullet to hunting with. They are not built the same. [/QUOTE]
