[QUOTE="Flattop, post: 1863868, member: 24134"] We went to Mexico this January for a coues hunt with a 6.5prc proof loaded with the 156 bergers. Shot two bucks between 700 and 750 yards. Bullets just punched through and didn't expand. One buck took 3 shots to kill it. Very disappointing performance on a big bullet. I know that it could be an an exception. We called berger and discusssed it with them. Just a small sample size of course and there are stories of failures on almost every bullet. But it has created some doubt in mind at this point.
