[QUOTE="Rymart, post: 1050644, member: 3688"] It was neither typical, or unusual for damage in my experience... If that makes any sense. It was an average sized mature 4x4 mule deer buck. Shot was a bit over 600 yards away. The picture was the entrance side of the wound. The shot was made at a steep downhill angle and I think it grazed some spine on the way in and fragmented. I'd call it a bullet failure, but dead is dead, and there was no lack of penetration. Haven't used the 338 LM for mule deer since, doing just fine with the 6mm AR. Another one for the 338LM overkill hall of shame: [IMG]http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l313/rymart/Mobile%20Uploads/image-12.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
