Default Bullet fail...

.270 WSM...140gr Accubond CT Winchester Supreme...300 yards...milk jug.

Bullet on right was recovered INSIDE the milk jug, didn't even penetrate thru a milk jug full of water! The other bullet hit a touch low on the second shot and was recovered ON TOP of the dirt.

Both bullets expanded as expected, just zero penetration. I would sure hope that an "elk rated" bullet would go thru a milk jug. We were getting ready for a Nebraska whitetail hunt and this happened, the gun/ammo stayed home and another rifle came along with us...



After the rain quits we are going to video shooting into a milk jug and send it to Winchester.
