[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1520382, member: 33159"] This is what I love about Steve and Hammer Bullets!!! Always trying to improve them and actually paying attention to the results he and his customers are experiencing. Elk can be tough animals, that's why I use a 30 cal or bigger on them. 3 years ago I double lunged a bull elk 3 times using a 180gr Accubond in my 300 WSM. He was dead after the first shot but didn't know it. He just stood there and fell over after the 3rd shot. I was amazed at the damage he absorbed. Now, back to the Hammer bullets. I used the 213gr Hunter in my 338 Lapua on a Kodiak Island mountain goat in October. Had to shoot him through the front shoulder due to his position. The bullet went through both shoulders and left about a 2 -3 inch exit hole. He stood up, then fell over. We used the gutless method to skin and break him down, so I didn't see what the vitals looked like. What I can tell you was everything was "sloshing around" inside, so it was pretty well destroyed internally. [/QUOTE]
