Short barrel keeper loads??

It is very odd for me to not get an exit with a AB.
I shot a ram with a 160 accubond out of a 7rm at 3050 fps, broadside, no exit. It died yes. But I was unpleased with no exit for a tough bonded bullet. I switched to eldxs. I don't expect an exit with an eldx but more expansion/energy dump with a better BC. The last whitetail i shot at 30 yards with a 162 gr eldx at around 3150 did indeed get an exit hole. Broadside shot.

What did you gain? Energy dump? Funny. mtmuley
