[QUOTE="beretzs, post: 2361812, member: 15154"] We use that same bullet at 3550. While the petals may come off our deer rarely every move. I suspect if you’d drilled the lungs or even the liver your results would’ve been much different. Just because the petals broke off doesn’t exactly mean you drilled a 1/4” hole. That speed caused plenty of trauma just not to life ending organs. Partitions aren’t much if any better honestly at those speeds since it’ll expand and you’ll be left with barely over caliber shank but they still kill well. Congrats on your buck and as others mentioned, things happen but that bullet is incredible in a 257 Wby. Seen it work too many times now to question it. That’s a hammer of a deer. Glad you were able to get him on the pole. [/QUOTE]
