What I got was a "poor mans partition" instead! It zipped through the rib cages, making a 1/2" entrance and an 1 1/2" exit...but...it "syphoned out" the torn up lungs/tissue! They were hanging out the exit side! ha I kid you not, never saw nothing like it. They all ran under 20yds and dropped without a kick, great deer load! Now, that's an example of only four small whitetail deer. So use them and make sure you take pictures for us! Have a ball Pard!

I've seen that happen with 270Wby factory softpoint loads. They were 100 or 110gr loads bought by mistake. They tugged lung tissue right out of the exit.


Now with even more aplomb
