[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2932079, member: 15054"] I really do not need an exit wound if the animal is hit hard enough and the bullet expels all the energy inside the animal they 9 times out of 10 drop where they were hit. And do not get up. My 30-30 with 150gr soft points would always exit and the deer would most of the time run off about 100 yards. A few spine shots and one between the eyes anchored them with the 30-30. That mushroomed bullet exiting the deer has not treated me well. The bullet that explodes like a hand grenade inside the deer has worked better for me. I got an exit with the Hornady #3031 bullet in my 30-06 ,, with muzzle velocity just a tick over 3000 fps no matter where I hit them.. Well can't say that for a fact as my buddy hit one in the rear 1/2" away from the bunghole! Flipped the deer 2 times did not find the bullet. I broadside shot behind the shoulder a nice buck with the Hornady 3031 and it sprayed blood out the other side for 25 feet. Deer went 80 yards and crashed into a tree in the tree line.. sounded just like a car crash I kid you not. Never heard anything like it. The deer you hit with the A-Max did they run off ? Yep the 3031 is a soft point and soft points have killed deer and many other beasts for over 100 years. [/QUOTE]
