I have some eld-Ms order so looking forward to testing them

It's hard to find the perfect bullet son, impossible to find the perfect woman...etc A bullet that kills smaller meat animals like yearlings and spikers without blowing them to bits but can penetrate a big stag all pumped up with testosterone, muscles and neck toughened to prevent injury from other stags antlers. A bullet that kills well up close as well as far off. Because you are using a 30 cal I think a slightly harder bullet is going to be better than a similar weight softy in a 7mm for example, but then again the bullet is slower out of the 3006.
The two important questions to answer for me are 1 have you ever lost an animal with an amax ? 2 is meat damage limited to the entry exit or is there a large area of bruising ?
