Well there are some things you have not mentioned. If you shoot deer size animals on the back edge of the front leg shoulder area you can consistently get a pass through with a 250 gr Bonded Shock Wave. I you shoot them in the shoulder bones even a 300 gr might get stopped some times.I use the regular ones for practice and sighting they shoot the same POI for me even at long range. I am putting a pic of this years doe take at 40 yds with 120 gr of Blackhorn and a 250 gr bonded Shock Wave.
Oh and for your info the 250 SST also shoots the same POI.
Pics show inside and out side of the exit hole.
