I once shot a doe about 175 yards away with a .243 100gr. psp bullet. I hit her broadside facing to the right. I hit her slightly high left, just off the corner of her scapula... the thin part.

Don't know how the heck it happened, but that bullet seemed to somehow circle back and mess up the meat on that whole shoulder, front back, top and bottom! Never saw a bullet fragment like that and do so much damage on the same side it went in on. Amazing. And the neck roast on that same side was toast too.

And and and, almost forgot!... it messed up much of the backstrap too! Bummer.

Bullets do strange things.
