Shot some Rockchucks with my 20 LBC and V-Max 32 grainers--There was pieces of Rockchuck 40 feet away!   :chuckle:
Also used some HP Varmint Nightmares from Midsouth Shooters Supply.  Just as accurate and devastating as V-max and a whole lot cheaper...  :tup:

It cost me zip to skin, flesh and stretch and around $24. each in lots of six including shipping for the tanning so I'm clearing $26-$36 on the finnished pelts.  I've been stock piling tanned fur to make things and am selling the seconds off.  Hopefully I'll be shipping some to auction this year and other than shipping they will be all profit.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

58 Grain Vmax from my .243 do a number on them. Hit this one a little far back on the run and almost blew it in half. Had to put it back together to get a decent pic. Hornady Superformance.

Did we loose a bunch of posts from this thread?  I posted a photo of a ronghorn I shot with a cutting edge bullet - thier BBW#13.  It seems to be gone along with some other photos I recall seeing that others put up.

Anyway, check out this photo.  I lifted if from Michael over at the accurate reloading forum:
http://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/4711043/m/2861098911/p/272

This is a gel test of a 223, 55 gr BBW#13 NonCon HP, hit at 100 yds, impact velocity around 2700-2800 estimated.... Gel block 6x6.....

The BBW#13 fragments on impact and while the core of the bullet continues in straight line penetration path that is equal to or greater than same weight bullets of other brands, the petals shear off and continue along in a star pattern leaving a massive wound channel.

95gr. Nosler Bt puts the smack down on a yote. Softball size exit when ya hit bone on entrance side.

I shoot both these cals. BY FAR worst is a 95gn Nosler BT running around the 3200fps mark. Shoot em in the head and turn em into clowns with both eyeballs hangin out and a softball sized exit.
I since have got a custom turret for my load so now im shooting 95gn Berger VLDs at 3136fps and if you hit bone ur gonna get a pretty good sized exit. I hit one facing me last winter and hit it right between the shoulders and it exited between the back shoulder blades and you could have set a football in the hole.

22-250 I shot 50gn Nosler BTs and had a few nasty holes (max load est close to 4,000fps) If I were to hit bone on entrance it would blow up on entrance. Vmax's are terrible for blowing up on entrance. I also shot 52gn Seirras, shot a dog at maybe 10 yards with no exit. Last day I shot that load. (shot a dog about an hr later at about 220 and heart shot it and it ran about 60 yards with a golf ball sized exit.  Now my load for the 250 is 52gn Bergers behind a 36.6gns of Varget.
