I recovered this from a whitetail buck shot with my 280 rem. Muzzle velocity 2970 and the distance was 100 yards. Didn't hit any heavy bones

Nice expansion. I'm surprised that you recovered this bullet in a deer. What was the impact and where did you recover the bullet?

I was very surprised to recover the bullet. The entrance was just behind the shoulder and I found the bullet against the hide right behind the last rib on the off side.

Excellent performance. I truly like the E-Tip in all the cartridges that I have tested so far.

Same here. Sorta amazed to see one recovered in a deer. Looks pretty good though.
