I did manage to run one through a 4x4 whitetail buck. Not a whopper but he was handy as in 200 yards from the house. Thought I reported back here but I see I did not...

With the 7mm rem mag 150 gr. Core lokt tipped around 130-ish yards the Bullet just touched the buck in the rear edge of the left shoulder meat as the deer was quartered a little toward me. Expansion was obviously instant, only the hide had a 7mm hole in it, damage was not bad to the shoulder but the vitals were soup. The bullet made a very consistent sized elongated 1-1/4" straight hole all the way through the deer exiting in the rear portion of the opposite side ribs.

The buck did some funky front end dance at the shot, spun around and made it 40 yards or so with a blood trail to follow in the snow and fell over.
