I used to use CAC 180 grain hollow points in my Finnwolf, shot a red spikey one really wet day, could hardly make him out in the scope, things were they wet.
Centred the crosshairs on where I judged his chest was ( range about 30 yards) and let rip.
Spikey obligingly fell over dead and at the same time I was (again!) drenched by a very localized down pour.
Bullet had gone through the centre of a beech tree as thick as a (proper sized!) beer bottle and shook the rain off its branches.
On dealing with the deer I found the bullet had keyholed through two ribs then carried on through the chest cavity and shattered the upper leg bone and stopped just under the skin.
Oh, tree was about 5 yards on front of the deer.
Impressed by the performance?
Hell yes!
