Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Berger Bullets?

I've got nothing of substance to add, so I figure I may as well post a pic of last year's WY mule deer, taken at 378 yards via 140 berger.
Broke the front onside shoulder, destroyed the lungs and he took a 100 yard death run before piling up. I never found a trace of the bullet, and the offside shoulder had zero indication of damage. This is the onside shoulder, and as some others have said, you'd have to part the hair to see the entrance hole. After skinning his shoulder didn't look near this pretty. Please take my word for that.


A week later this rag bull's shoulder stopped another 140 berger from the same rifle at 335 yards. Luckiy he stood still just long enough for me to put one more bullet in him, this time tight behind the shoulder. He then staggered a few yards and fell. That bullet didn't exit either, nor did I find a trace of it.



Take from this what you will.
