[QUOTE="MZmoose, post: 2471410, member: 41085"] I stopped using them. 30,06 2750fps 178 eldx hit a muley at 220yds and it turned into a grenade. Bullet hit the edge of the shoulder blade, completely shed the jacket, and made it to one lung. Had to shoot the deer again in the neck to finish it. That bullet broke the neck but didn't exit. Then the gun hit a doe whitetail at 40 yds behind the shoulder. Bullet exited but fragmented badly, and pieces went thru diaphragm into the guts, and damaged back straps. Work great on coyotes.
