Went down to the LGS today and conversation kinda turned to match bullets for hunting.

This may shock most here but it doesn’t seem to be very accepted by the masses.
Even when you have pictures.
Shocking, I know. 😁

If you have pictures of the damage caused by a match bullet (ELDM, TMK, Berger, etc….) regardless of cartridge, post it up.

If possible it would be nice to have

Cartridge
Bullet
MV
Impact Velocity (estimated works)

At least. Any other info is welcome.

Most importantly, pictures. Everyone loves pictures. 😁😁

77 TMK

Nothing but little stuff for now.
I’ve got some 155 TMK’s that I’m hoping will give me some pictures next week. 😁😁
 
He turned sharp just as I pulled the trigger. 200 yards, Sauer 6.5 CM . Hornady 140g Match. I Only used match based off of what a friend told me. I was not disappointed.
Bullet struck his back bone right above his rear quarters. I was shocked by the damage that Match bullet did.
Bad shot? Hell yes it was, but it did the job. This also makes me more cautious about long distance shots. If he moved this much by the time the bullet travled only 200 yards, a 400+ yard shot could've been a complete miss. But the point of the post, match bullets cause deathly damage.

Grendel. 123 eld. 80ish yrds punched the shoulders, found part of the jacket stuck to the hide at the exit hole. Got the drunk legs at the shot and didnt hardly go anywhere.

Only pic I took as it was that impressive of a dink...
