Dang, impressive energy transfer, nice!
.54 cal Hornady Great Plains pushed by 90 gr T7 out of my Rocky Mountain Hawken. 89 yards. Bullet broke ribs on both sides and stopped under the hide on the far side. New bullet for comparison. It only shed a couple grains.
The only other I ever recovered was a .530 round ball that went through heavy shoulder and fragmented severely. A few dozen pass throughs with conicals and round balls.
Believe it or not, with his heart literally blown in half, that buck (aged at 7 1/2 YO by tooth cross section) made it from that field in the background about 40 yards up a steep hillside to the flat spot where he went down. Whitetails never cease to amaze me.
