[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 470569, member: 5"] Before there was much if any "real world experience" with them I bought some and tried them and have been using them since 2005. I've killed several deer from under 100 yards to just under 900 yards and never recovered a bullet and never had a deer move out of his tracks. All bang flops. The performance under 100 yards, as far as entrance and exit holes and damage goes, was repeated on the long shots. Have hit ribs with them on deer but they were never affected by the ribs that I could tell. This is a picture of a spike elk I shot with them at just under 700 yards. He was facing me and quartering slightly to the left. Bullet entered the left side of his neck, the area where his neck and left front quarter meet, destroyed pretty much everything in his chest cavity, traveled the full length of the body, came out under the hide on the right rear behind the ribs and entered the right rear quarter. Bang flop.

I can say however that I wouldn't recommend them for grouse because if the shot isn't perfect they just go "poof". :) [/QUOTE]
