Bullet busted both elk shoulder blades and exited. Elk dropped and never moved....once again these bullets proved to be bone crushers... He did awesome in this hunt - proud dad Good stuff. And great shot

A 12 year old shooting a 7RM is terrible though...isn't there an minimum age for such overpowered magnums? Everyone knows kids should use nothing larger than a 7-08.
