The deer I killed this year was walking at 80 or so yards and the .308/150 cup and core bullet center punched a small sapling before entering his neck. I don't know if the 75AMAX or 77TMK would have made that journey thru the sapling and the neck? Thoughts?


You were lucky.

Don't count on it going that way again whatever the cartridge.
