[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 2351399, member: 14204"] Sometimes even on a well-placed shot, the game expires differently. A few years ago, my hunting buddies and I harvested 3 MT bulls. My buddy was shooting factory ammo loaded with 180 Barnes TTSX out of his .300 WM and took him three shots at 100Y (2 pass-through in the lung, another shot to front shoulder) that penetrated 3/4 through the bull's body. My other buddy shot his with factory ammo loaded with 180 Berger VLD out of his 7MM RM at 350Y; the bull was DRT. Mine was taken with a 190 Berger VLD at 931Y front shoulder. Despite the internal organs being all souped-up, he managed to run ~200Y with heard. IMHO, all the bullets performed as advertised, but the game expired differently. [/QUOTE]
