. I shot another moose with the old Lubalox-coated 230-grain FS, and the moose dropped like hit by lightning....
Ive nothing but good things to say about 230-FS...it expands much less than other softs, and as with your experiences, I also found it killed like lightning....even at 400 yd (+ complete penetration). it repeatedly emphasised to me the importance of shot placement and reliable penetration.....rather than being irrationally obsessed with larger & larger bore sizes & sometimes velocity.
