These threads really make me wonder...how many have actually shot AB's enough to know.

I've been shooting them pretty much exclusively for the last 5 seasons in both the 7RM (160's) and 7-08 (140's).

I've personally shot 14 elk with them, seen another 8 or so shot with them. Probably a similar number of deer and pronghorn as well.

I've recovered 5-6 and have shot elk with them between 25-629 (one at 601 with 7RM and one at 629 with the 7-08).

Here's the first elk. a 5 point, I killed with the 7RM and 160's at 25 yards broadside:

Shot this bull at 345 yards in Montana the same year, exit on the front of the shoulder:



Cow elk same year at 200ish yards, exit side:



Shot this guy bedded at 150ish yards, actually recovered the bullet on this one after breaking the off-shoulder:



Bullet right under the hide in the center of the of-shoulder:
