Found pieces an inch or so away from one another right under offside hide. This was a coup de grace double shoulder shot from about 100 yds on a bedded deer. Never chrono'd the load but its 46 gr Hunter & LRM primer are just under max for the Bob so guessing 3k-ish impact speed?



Jacket 41.7 gr

Jacket & core 62.7gr

Test subject & applicator:



I can't decide which goes best with this cartridge/load; the NBT or the now discontinued Interlock of the same weight.

Maybe we could say the Bob & 100s are PB&J. NBT is strawberry & Interlock is grape?

Either way I love em both and one of the two isn't showing signs of disappearing anytime soon!
 
The bullet certainly did its job. That buck looks quite restful.
 
Very nice Eric. Great buck and that 100 BT looks perfect for deer in my book!
