Default RE: Bullet Penetration Question

Sometimes at such short range (high velocity) a bullet will basically explode (fragment) upon hitting an object. Basically the bullet is traveling too fast for controled expansion. Not to worry though, it will still kill your deer, just not with the perfect mushroom that we expect to see because of advertising. I'm guessing that if your doe was out at 80 yards or more you would have seen different results.
