Wow,
I would have figured that had a lot more to do with the type of bullet chosen than the caliber. That said, a 150 at 3200'/sec is a pretty smoking load - care to share the details?
Thanks,

That was factory Winchester Power Point 150gr. ammo. I find the more velocity the more shock and blood shot meat. Now I have killed a damage control mule deer doe with a 375 Ruger shooting a Nosler 300gr. Accubond at 2590 fps has lees velocity and wasted meat then the 270wsm. Ball peen hammer traveling fast versus a sledge hammer traveling slower.

Nothing like a Remington 700xcr.
