175gr Terminal Ascent recovered off shoulder of a cow elk shot at 80 yards quartering away. Used my 30.06 and if I remember correctly it still weighed 167gr after it was cleaned up.

Any rough estimate as to impact velocity? I would've thought an LRX would open up a little better.

Also, here's a 165gr. Accubond fired into a cow elk at about 75 yards moving about 2700fps.
