[QUOTE="naja302, post: 2192703, member: 69437"] I shot a goat last year on kodiak with my 6.5 PRC and 125g cutting edge Lazer. I’m using the Seekins havoc element with a short barrel so velocity was 3000 FPS. I went with this Bullet to keep velocity and BC up. Goats are big tough critters and my results were excellent (but my guide was honestly concerned about me being under gunned) he was threatening the whole trip to put finishing shots into my goat with his 375. I also shot a deer. Complete penetration on both and both went a little ways and then piled up (rolling a couple hundred feet) the deer was surprisingly big bodied. Deer was probably only about 100 yards. Goat was 309 yards. All bullets recommend above will work well, but I would recommend a bonded or all copper bullet to maximize penetration cause their bodies are huge. If you want to really try to anchor one in place I’d recommend 300 mags + and even then don’t count on it anchoring them I also shot a deer. Complete penetration on both and both went a little ways and then piled up (rolling a couple hundred feet) the deer was surprisingly big bodied [/QUOTE]
