I have not shot them into water but have shot a 125lb doe. The entrance hole was 30 cal and the exit hole was as big as a quarter. Shot through the shoulder. Went 25 yards. deer was 100 yards away.

Shot another 120 lb doe with the 220 sierra soft point. Exit hole was slightly smaller. Deer ran about 30 yards. Deer was 100 yards away.

Shot another 120 lb doe with a 220 smk. Shot the deer facing me in the chest. Bullet lodged in the hindquarter. Deer ran about 30 yards and then fell down. Tried to get up but could not. I found the bullet and it barely expanded at all. Deer was about 35-40 yards away when I shot.

The reason I went to the amax's is because I thought the red tip would help with the expansion. Accuracy is also the best of the 3 out of my remington 700 with douglas barrel.
