[QUOTE="magna19, post: 3055545, member: 24646"] The 60 yds. and 3500 MV was most of the problem with over bullet expansion. Had the same kind of results with a hopped up 240 Wby Mag back in the 80's. Shots under 100 yds. always expanded to 40-70% retained weight. Just think if you would have shot broadside through the lungs with a complete pass through without bullet recovery. It would have looked like the perfect bullet performance and probably used it again. Always try to use a bullet that will anchor a 270 lb. bruiser once in a lifetime buck at a quartering shoulder shot. JMO [/QUOTE]
