I have never seen this before, not even on the internet.Cody and I hunted an Impala ram, got the animal just before dark - the animal was 35 kg head feet skin off, clean carcass. Here's the story.The animal was at exactly 220 m and the 7mm 08 launched an 154 gr Hornady InterLock at 2640 fps. The animal was hit on the shoulder, but behind bones, the bullet did not hit one bone. On being hit the animals legs collapsed about a third downwards before recovering and springing off out off clearing out of sight.When we got there the dog was straining and all go go mode and we concluded she was onto the animal. The dog ran 20 ft into bush and the animal wa found.Dead. We did the bleeding and gutting and went on our way further.When we went home, this is what met us upon skinning, never seen this before, not even on the net.This bullet passed through not hitting bone at all, was traveling a pedestrian 2640 fps at the barrel ant only got to animal at 220 m - check this out, from under the ear to behind last rib destroyed. Look at exit wound ? What the ****** happened here, total destruction.
