I'd like to get some penetration figures from Nosler and inquire whether or not they can successfully be used on both deer and elk.
I shoot 30-06 factory ammo from Winchester (180-gr. AccuBond & Ballistic Tips) and Federal (180-gr. Partition & Solid Base) in a Browning BAR.
For penetration purposes, let's say the 180-gr. Nosler projectiles will hit an animal at 200 yards and the resulting velocity equates to about 2,150 fps +/-.
Can you Nosler experts please provide some penetration figures on the following .308 bullets traveling at about 2,150 fps?
* 180-gr. Partition - Elk
* 180-gr. AccuBond - Elk (Deer?)
* 180-gr. Solid Base - Deer (Elk?)
* 180-gr. Ballistic Tip - Deer
Thank-you in advance of your assistance!
