There was certainly some bloodshot, but not bad. Both sheep and goat were shot through the shoulder blades, and I probably tossed about 1-2" radius around the hole.
I did centerpunch the spine on a blacktail a few years back with a 162, and it must have made a 2.5" hole on the way out. Lost more meat on that one, and it was backstrap too. That was 7SAUM, so should have been around the same velocity.
Thanks. I got a Montana 280 AI now and got a bunch of 162's to try. Hoping to get a good load dialed in here soon so I can use this combo for sheep and goats next fall. You using RL22? And you loading your rounds to mag length?
