Thread: Recovered Amax

Here's the 162gr (7mm) A-max that was recovered from the offside shoulder of the red stag i shot a couple of weeks back.

Muzzle velocity of 2,990 fps, shot at 470 yards, impact velocity of approx 2,360 fps, the jacket and lead core were found 3 cm apart in the offside leg, didn't quite make the skin. Total weight of both pieces is 76gr.



I guess some would say the bullet failed by separating, but i was quite happy with the performance, it smashed through both front shoulder blades, poleaxed him, he didnt take a step, just 2 cartwheels down hill and didn't get up.
