First animal I shot with my CZ 9.3x62 FS was a whitetail buck at about 40 yards with privi 286 grain softpoint. Bullet penetrated thru deer and thru the 8 inch apple tree trunk behind him. Dug the slug out of the dirt behind the apple tree found a perfect mushroom with jacket still attached. Got it in my gun cabinet somewhere. Will see if I can find it and post picture. Oh yeah and the buck nose planted right up against the tree. No tracking required. I love this round. I had read that those bullets have problems with jacket seperation. Maybe if you try to hot rod it but at factory velocity about 2200 fps no such problem.
