Recovered a .300 wsm Winchester XP3 after it passed through a bull elk at about 40 yards, and embedded into an old stump. Not sure why the XP3 went away. I was getting very impressive wound channels in elk with that round

Cool thread.
Looked high and low for two .50 cal round balls i recovered from a moose. Round on one side, flat on the other.
You get the picture.

Just picked up some 250s the other day and my gun really liked them. Glad to see some good results.

Haven't shot an elk with one but damned if the SSTs aren't my favorite deer bullet. They just work.

50 cal no excuses after passing through a big bull elk at 50 yards and stuck under the far side hide.

This was the last deer I killed with a gun. Barnes TTX 120 grain fired from 10.5 300 BLK AR-Pistol. He was facing away but I had a steep downward angle into the body cavity. It was about 60 yards and the bullet punched thru the spine and seared a nasty round channel thru the entire length of one lung. He didn’t take a step. I found the bullet in the body cavity up again the sternum.

And you can bet your ass I used camera angles to make the deer look as big as possible!
