Yep. It certainly makes an impressive hole! I was pleased to see that it made a (rather gruesome) EXIT wound. My real concern was that at 3300 fps the bullet would just totally explode on impact like a varmint bullet and the frag wouldn't get deep enough to kill quickly. I've seen a few varmint bullet wounds on deer that look like someone scooped out a 3-4" wide and 3" deep chunk of muscle, but didn't go through the ribcage. Looks like the Berger will get into the vitals ok, and that's what I'm looking for.
