Hornady 150gr 30cal RN Interloc worked a bit too well on this buck in 2017. He walked up to me on the ground at 15 yards and I shot for his shoulder. His head sweep at the shot put his eye socket in the way and that hardly slowed down the 300 Savage. It stopped after going all the way down his neck and behind the far side shoulder. Problem was it didn't stop him from running in an 8 yard circle right at me whereupon I let the second round fly thinking he was a miss and was running away. Next thing I know he's down at my feet and his antler is missing. Way over penetrated on Antler. Hard to show your buck to the guys when you have to hold the horn together. Did not effect the meat including the bulk of the neck roast. Lucky November Rut all the way around. Example of one.
