Has anyone recovered a Trophy bonded tip bullet from an animal they've taken? How did it look? did it stay together? did it mushroom pretty good? Just curious what everyone has seen so far on antelope, deer & elk .

I shot a cow elk with one but never recovered the bullet even though it didnt exit. She was about 80 yards and went straight down. Shot her with my 30/06 using the 180 grain bullet.

thanks guys
 
I have recovered one from a bull moose. It mushroomed perfectly with awesome weight retention. I will go rummage through my stuff and find it to take a picture.
 
Not what you asked for, but I am a Barnes fan... This went through two moose shoulders...
