I was thinking the Platinum was going to work on elk. If it can't pass through a deer. I'm not using it.

Muley i am sure the heavier flat metplate Pb's would do just fine.it's the pure lead with the huge hollow point,that are the problem.

Yeah, but you know how I hate recoil.

I'll just use 100-110gr of BH with a 300gr Thor, and be happy knowing it will get the job done.

A nice soft recoil pad on the gun, and a shoulder recoil pad will keep my shoulder smiling.

It would have been nice to see a better picture of the entrance wound channel

If your friends like a sabot-less bullet, suggest they try Hornady FPBs. I have shot 5 deer at ranges from 30 to about 100. All pass-throughs, some through the shoulders too.
