    On that topic, I shot a rabbit thru the chest at 150 yds the other day, and the targex HP53 went straight thru. .... I know coz the round plowed a furrow behind the animal ...

    The Vmax 40/ 53 rips the front chassis to bits and leaves a massive exit wound at the same range ...

    So definitely be careful in considering zone behind the target.
