162g ELDM leaving the muzzle at 2650. 206 yards. Buck antelope. Entered through the front shoulder, quartering to, found an exit in the back of the guts, but did not exit the hide, the bullet was under the hide just outside the exit in between the hide and the rear quarter on the opposing side.
If I could post videos I would, but in the video it appears that the hit was much further back than it was. If you look at my first picture of the entrance, you can see a ton of smaller holes around the entrance, I'm wondering if that bullet fragmented and fragments blew out the shoulder before the bulk of the bullet proceeded through the animal. I had trouble finding the exit before skinning because there were what appeared to be several small holes with blood on the shoulder. @Formidilosus ever seen this?
Incredible penetration and huge wound channel. This is the first animal I've shot with match bullets and I have to say I feel it almost caused too much damage. I wouldn't hesitate to use this combo on literally anything.
1st pic is entrance
2nd Pic is exit
3rd pic is what was recovered of the bullet
4th pic is all those additional holes I was talking about around the entrance.

Those "extra" holes near the entrance are most likely caused by pieces of bone fragmenting out.
