Well I finally shot a buck with the 140 gr XLC's out of my 7mm Mag. It was quartering away and I hit it about 4" from the top of the back in the farthest rib back, the bullet came out on the opposite side at the farthest rib forward. The buck dropped real fast and he was done. It was about a 100 yard shot. Thier was about an 1 1/2" entrance hole and about a 1" exit, only a tiny bit of meat damage on the backstrap where a piece of rib hit it. I am pretty pleased at the XLC's performance. Now I need to fill my other tag .
