Default RE: Ballistic tips on deer

Ya, saw that post SJ. I didn't like either option really.

Skeeter, I'm shooting a 160g. out of my 7mm Mag. Only chance I've had so far was a running coyote at 100 yards broadside. Smoked him (1/2 coyote lead) with my handloads. Right through both lungs about a quarter size hole on the far side. Elk hunting right now so keep your fingers crossed and if I get one I'll show results like I did for my 2002 deer (http://www.powerandfury.com/j02deer.html). Just scroll down to the bottom fora link on bullet performance from a 150g Scirocco out of my 7mm.

I'm not sure what bullet weight she was using. I'm guessing 150 out of her 308.
