hey guys, i noticed somethin today after i shot my deer for the season. i shot him with a 300 h&h mag loaded with 165gr hpbt bullets. i shot the deer in the same place i always have, right in the neck. the buck dropped on the spot and when i looked the bullet entrance and exit wounds over i noticed that the exit was not as large as i would have thought. in fact my 270 w/ 130 power points seemed to do more damage and leave a larger exit wound in past deer that i have shot. i remember from several years ago a doe my dad shot in the neck also with a 308 norma mag and it just made a huge mess! i know that he shot it with soft points also cause he had a hundred round loaded up at the same time and he now nearly out of that batch. anyhow, i came to the conclussion that soft points have a higher expansion rate and to more damage. what do you fellas think? am i on the right track?
