Never fell for the old saw that "the animal was dead, therefore the bullet didn't fail".

Better to think in terms of it performing as well as it needed to.....that time.

But that doesn't mean it was great performance, either.Never saw the point in seeking the lowest levels in terminal performance and calling it "good".

13" of penetration in a soft tissue is nothing to write home about. But it does work on small stuff and rib shots.There's better ways to fly when it comes to shooting animals.

Toad's photo speaks volumes, and it has nothing to do with "pretty" and photo ops. It's all mechanics.
