No, you didn't do anything wrong. Sent a PM.

That picture may be a little graphic to some , but was about as humane as is possable. That animal felt no pain and suffered none.

Look whatzrexpilotdid with .243!

RE: pics of exit hole
 

what was he shooting out of that 243, a grenade?!?! I've never seen an exit that big out of a 243

Wow. When you shoot one where you hit her it doesn't really matter about meat damage but that kind of rapid explosive expansion is why I just don't care for ballistic tips.

My son pictured there shot that deer at 195yds. Using a .243 100 gr Federal sierra gamkings.
Heres another pic of the same deer with the skin still on.










The deer went straight down but wasnt finished. When we walked up to it it was still trying to get up, so I put one in the neck at pointblank.
Heres a pic of that hole. Both holes look the same, but the first hole was from a 195 yds away.

Rebel hog, it looks dead to me, great shooting. I shot a small one a few years ago with my 45-70 and had a hole like that from the front all the way out his butt, a mess to dress and clean up, but only lost one hind quarter. Every thing else that got tore up was heart lungs and sh!!.

whats the point in these huge holes tho? id rather have controlled expansion such as a remington core lokt

Heres my exit wound on my 4x4 mule deer. traditions kentucky flintlock, 50 cal Patched round ball and 110 grains goex 3f. A nice clean kill lol.

i had similar results with a 168 grain ballistic silvertip out of my 308 on a doe at 50 or so yards. I ended up going to a bonded core bullet after seeing firsthand what everyone was trying to tell me about ballistic tips and short range missouri whitetail shots.
