Regarding Bergers, I have seen a few very dramatic kills on deer from friends using them, the last one was at 409 yards this fall.
The danged deer simply folded its legs and went straight down without a twitch, dead before it hit the ground, didn't even roll over!
Rifle was a 7Mag, bullet was a 168 I think?
Now, the exit was softball sized, but it was a lung shot.
My friend has used the same rig on 4 moose so far, but he explained that he takes lung shots only, NO shoulders with that bullet! LOL.
because I shoot a .303 as my main cartridge, I am a bit limited in bullet brands and selection, but am planning on trying some of the new Hammer bullets next when they come out in .311 .
No idea why, except the curiosity thing !LOL
