I was out 2 seasons ago with my friends wife on a muley hunt in southern Alberta. She was shooting a Winchester feather in 257 Roberts, and downed a monster of a mule buck. She was shooting factory 117gr Hornady ammo. When we skinned out that animal I could believe the damage this bullet had created inside that animal. Bullet travelled from low in the front 1/4 through the whole body and out the other side past the ribs. Quite amazing I thought.

I'll have to lend her that gun again sometime when we are drawn for antelope perhaps. FS
