Here is his post he put up..
We are hunting elk right now in Oregon and using Thro bullets , I have some questions and are we doing something wrong , We are getting pin hole pass threw's no expansion in the bullets ,, One of us was able to get a head shot on a yearling and I would expect a big exit hole ,,The 250 gr Thro bullet went straight threw the skull .500 hole in .500 hole out , It was originally hit left front shoulder bullet went threw shoulder down spine cut liver into out right side flank ,, Setup was a ,, CVA ML, 110 gr 3f Triple seven powder .
any help would be great ,,didn't retrieve bullets ,
I got to tell you I was really surprised with this example but in phone call to me I asked him very specific questions and everything points to penciling in all three Elk. It was a 247 gr. 501 Hollow Point.
That's why it kills me when people try to defend the bullets in Rons testing. I wish he would test the bullets and lock the threads so no one can comment.
