Gotcha, thanks PRM. Which do you prefer out of the two, Scenar or Berger?
Minor edge to the VLD. Maybe... The 139 penetrates more, the VLD does more damage. The shot with the 139 was broadside lung and the bullet had not expanded by the first lung entry, but had by the second lung. Buck ran a bit (50-60 yds?) and died. They both work but it would probably take many more animals to really discern any meaningful difference. Neither results in the same response by the animal as being hit with a .338 bullet.
