That's a lot of blood on the outside. How big was the exit hole, Neale?

How about what happened at impact?
I've been told that that velocity with that bullet will just about cut a whitetail just about into 2 chunks. The dog's hide must be tough.




He was only about 40 yards and I hit him in the shoulder as you can see.
Because of the angle it exited out his neck and dropped him like a stone,just nervous kicking.

I expected a huge exit hole but there was none. Broken shoulder,three ribs on the off side,two ribs on the near side + heaps of blood as you can see.

Had a bit of a dig but am unsure if the bullet hung together and exited intact or if it "blew up" and only a little piece came out. Should of looked more but was too keen to keep going after my dogs.

We are lucky to have Tony close and keen.
