    Shot a red side-on through the ribs with a 223, it ran about 75 yards before falling over and I almost didn’t find it in the dense bush.

    I suspect the PMC projectile was of a hard material and didn’t hit any bone etc to expand, it went in between ribs and exited in the same manner.

    Possibly a hollow point might have expanded?
