[QUOTE="Send it 284, post: 2000612, member: 115872"] My wife just got her bull with 142 ablrs at an impact velocity around 2900. She put one right through the center of the shoulder and it blew through the scapula and broke the offside leg bone before exiting. I'm very impressed with the penetration but it still blew a huge wound channel on impact similar to bergers and other explosive bullets. The difference being that the base of the bullet still held together enough to punch through. I'm probably going to switch to monolithic bullets to avoid massive meat damage Here's a picture of the offside leg bone [ATTACH type="full"]219673[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
