[QUOTE="TXAoudadKlr, post: 1221253, member: 67390"] Only bullet failure I've experienced after some thought was due to using too soft of a bullet for the animal being hunted at the distance the shot was taken. The bullet was a 150gr Ballistic silver tip out of a 7mm rem mag. Some need to be honest with themselves and evaluate the shot placement and terminal performance before just blaming the bullet for the animal not going down in a timely manner or down at all. Even then, if you shoot enough eventually you'll see some weird stuff with a bullets terminal performance. For instance my buddy shot a aoudad with his 338LM and 225gr TSX at 204 yards with very slight quartering towards him angle. Bullet entered made it the off side and traveled underneath the hide for exiting out at the front part of the hind leg. [/QUOTE]
