yes they definently did what they were designed to do.....both shots were broadside btw......i didnt look to much but i didnt hit majow bone like shoulder or anything....maybe ribs but other then that it was all organ and tissue ect....but the holes were bigger at the 100+yard shot....so i think when they slow down a bit they open a little better.....ill use them the rest of this season....im confident with them.....they do their job....i just like a little more expansion.....im not a long range guy...i dont need high energy loads or anything.......
