    I would say the gamekings would be a better killing bullet. I have tried them in 6.5, 7mm and 308 never in 270 unfortunately. Mate shot a sika fawn @ 50-60m~ with the 145eldx with a MV of over 2800 and it didn't exit which was suprising

    not really.....no more so than a 125grn speer TNT from .308 not exiting small wallabies....a supersoft projectile going fast is trying to tear itself apart,hit any resistance and it will happily do so.
    slow them down and they will hold together more.....this isnt new folk have been doing it ever since velocities got up over 3000fps and quite possibly earlier....
