Killed a medium sized pronghorn buck a couple of weeks ago with a 30 cal 125 gr. out of a .308 - MV 3227 fps. He was about 150 yds away standing broadside, bullet took out a rib on both sides and did quite a bit of damage inside. To me it seemed like a pretty tough bullet, more like an Accubond than, say, a BT or Game King. Frankly I expected more internal damage and a huge exit hole, but really the only important thing is that it killed him quickly.
Just a sample of one on a rather small animal but it worked well.
I have some 22 cal 64 gr.s loaded I'll try next month.
