[QUOTE="cajun, post: 3059786, member: 9772"] This has been my experience as well. 7 mag 140 TTSX. 3200 at muzzle. 100 yd shot. It didnt pencil you could see the x mark through the lungs so it opened. But tissue damage was localized looked like a deer shot with a broadhead. Unlike say a 140 ballistic tip where the lungs are jello and extensive damage. I can only think at that high sectional density and little resistance going through a deers ribcage was the issue. I also believe that a bullet that retains 100% of it’s weight is not transferring energy to the animal unlike a cup and core with may lose 25-50% of it’s weight depending on bullet design. [/QUOTE]
