I kinda barked a chuck with a 220 swift many years ago standing up by a fencepost. My dad spotted the shot for me. We go to pick it up and find him dead, just a drop of blood at his nose. No hole, nothing. We figure he was leaning against it and I didn't see it for the post blended with his color and feet on top of post stump. The shock wave of the 55grn PTSP just done the job. First and only time I have seen it.
