    65gr SGK ,Fallow @247m ,hillar shot, broke both onside and offside legs took out both lungs and top of heart.
    Expected to find it under the skin as couldn't find an exit on the hill but on skinning a few days later found it had just managed to exit.
    Bit messy but it didn't argue the point at all.
    It did well to exit after breaking both leg bones.

    Clean crease shot 65gr game king at aprox 160m
    Collected a rib on the way in and way out.
    Drunken walked 10ish meters with a fountain of blood squirting out the off side before falling over dead.

    Much more like the performance I would expect of this projectile.

    Great. Good skinning job - looks like it was done cold, and they can be difficult - your back must be coming right.

    I find it quite comforting to see and hear that there are dudes who have actually done some home work.
    Realising that such a small pill can have such a huge effect if used appropriatly...good stuff and may the .223 live on eh..
