Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles whats up with nosler ballistic tip?

I used a 150 NBT from a 308 on a cow elk this year. The shot was 175ish yards. The bullet entered the shoulder and I recovered the jacket under the offside hide. The jacket had punched through the meat, but didn't make it through the hide. I'm assuming the core exited, as there was a small hole just above the jacket. The cow went about 30 yards before going down. Meat damage was less than expected.

Excellent performance considering I busted bone upon entrance.
