Howdy,
I've heard a couple stories about the use of big bore/hard lead/wide meplat projectiles against medium-ish game animals (deer, pigs, etc) where the bullet would rip a 1-2 inch permanent cavity through the animal (the two stories I've heard like this involved a .45-70 and a .44 mag from a rifle both using heavy for caliber bullets and fast for weight charges.
Can any hunters here relate a similar experience or refute such claims?
