If you want to recommend that type of performance -- well I don't know what to say.
They never did that for me. I shot numerous Texas Hill Country whitetails with that bullet in .30-06 at 2700 f/s MV at 100-200 yds.. I always had complete penetration with a gaping exit wound. Granted, these are 100-150 lb. deer.
