Default RE: How is this for bullet performance.....

ORIGINAL: doubleA

I am not saying that the bullet failed, though it did fail to expand. The range was slightly over 100 yards and I am certain the bullet had enough velocity at that range to expand properly.
double, I think you and I learned the exact same thing this year. I had the same type of result in my 300 RUM with 180 gr Accubonds. The bullets are obviously not made for whitetails. I have sinced shelved the gun and load and will only use it for bigger game then a whitetail. I guess I could try a softer bullet, but then at those speeds it may do the opposite.
