Found the core-lokt I killed a decent 8 pointer with last Monday while butchering the deer today. It was a 7 yard shot almost head on that impacted between the front shoulder and the neck. Bullet was recovered about an 1/8 inch below the surface at the back of the ham. Retained weight was 117 grains..if the small piece of the jacket that were found beside the bullet are counted retained goes to 123 grains. Bullet was a perfect mushroom. Fired from a 7-08 it began life as a 140 grain. It went through some large bone and travelled the length of the deer held together and dropped the deer within 15 yards. Pretty darned good performance for a "junk-lokt" Of all the deer I killed last week the only thing that they all had in common on bullet performance was the fact that all deer involved are now in the freezer


Is this about the norm for what everyone else is getting?
