I had a random thought the other day while shooting. It seems more often then I like i get docked for big holes in coyote pelts. I have tried different bullets, calibers etc... Sometimes doesn't matter and its how you hit them and a big hole is made.
What if a guy used an FMJ, but from a high power gun? For example Hornady has 125gr .308" fmj's and out of a 30-06 they would be zinging pretty quick (guessing maybe 3800-4000fps?).
Will the fmj still just poke a hole in them? or will it hit hard enough to cause trauma and drop it, thus hopefully only leave a small entrance and exit hole? Anyone ever try this?
