[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2678233, member: 15054"] Caution this is a story about instant death. Had another given to us on sunday and it was my turn to kill the animal. I have not got to try my 168Amax on game yet. This 700lb steer was on all 4's and looking at me from 20 feet and I stuck one right between the eyes. I got pushed back from the recoil and missed what my friend said was a wave sent from the head to the tail ..like a ripple or shock wave all the way down the body of this tasty black animal. I got to watch it hit the ground with a thud. No shaking no eye movement nothing..I have never seen an animal die so quickly. Tiny hole into the skull it did it's job,,It also went deep into the animal and must have cut the jugular as blood was pouring from the mouth. 2530fps or so ..I have heard these explode on impact ,,The tiny entrance hole tells a different story. No I did not dig through to find the bullet..... sorry. I did cook up a roast in the pressure cooker yesterday and it was excellent. And all the hamburger is ground and packaged :) I will be using this bullet and gun for the Holiday Antlerless season in hopes of trying it's performance again. 42.5gr varget in Lapua cases with 210M primers to light it all off. Excellent accuracy to 300 yards .555 MOA, will try further later. [/QUOTE]
