[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2419143, member: 103947"] In my experience, heavy for caliber bullets DO exit Everytime for me. It's the average to lighter for caliber bullets that stay in the animal. For me, the heavier bullets don't seem to perform as well on smaller animals (deer, goats). Elk are different. Heavier is always good simply because of the larger bigger boned structure. More mass for the bullet to perform in. Most if not all bigger bullets I've killed deer with have gone in and out with minimal expansion. Don't get me wrong they DID kill the deer just fine but no where near as destructive as the lighter bullet did when hitting Also I think velocity and construction obviously mean alot. I am comparing same bullet design in both heavy and lighter bullets when I compare. I'm my case, it's the Partitions I'm speaking of. .308 caliber lighter vs heavier. 165 grain vs 200 grain used in the 300 WM. [/QUOTE]
