DF,

I did shoot a big whitetail doe with what was then the 150-grain Raptor from a .30-06. Not much to report, except the deer went down within a few feet and the base of the bullet exited. Didn’t find any of the detached petals but it was late in the evening and didn’t look very hard. Lungs were full of holes. Hoped to shoot an elk with the load but was gimping around due to a knee injury and it didn’t happen. Might try to kill something with one this year. I don’t think there will be any problems with penetration.
