[QUOTE="SteelBanger, post: 2920413, member: 112192"] My 10 year old harvested his first deer this past weekend using the 125gr Shock Hammer in a 350 Legend. Shot was 60 yards and i don't remember the muzzle velocity as I worked up this load a couple years ago, but i want to say it was 2,550ish ... would have to go back through my logs to be sure, but it was absolutely devastating on the doe. Passed through without hitting ribs on either side, completely destroyed the top half of the heart and there was no recognizable lung material anywhere, both lungs were liquid mush. In all my excitement i didn't think to examine the entry and exit wounds from within the cavity, but both were pretty small from the outside. The other deer i took with this load had a massive exit would from hitting an offside rib but same results on the vitals. When it hit the doe I thought he hit forward and took out both front shoulders because the front half of the doe hit the dirt instantly and her hind legs pushed her across the ground about 10 yards before she rolled over and quickly expired. Perfect shot and couldn't be more proud of him!! [/QUOTE]
