Default RE: Ballistic tip?

ORIGINAL: stubblejumper

I have taken 9 elk with the 180gr ballistic tip out of my 300ultramags with a muzzle velocity of 3340fps..

I have taken abouttwo dozendeer,bighorn and pronghorn with the 140gr ballistic tip out of my 7mmstw with a muzzle velocity of 3500fps.

To date,not one bullet failure and not one animal covered 50 yards after being hit.Accuracy in all rifles is 1/2 moa or better.

That being said,I now use the tsx in my 300ultramagsfor elk.Nearly the sameaccuracy and much better penetration on heavy bones.However I still use the 140gr ballistic tip in my 7mmstws for deer sized game.
How many we're pass thru? How many we're pass thru with bone contact? J/W.
