I just picked up a used AR in 6.5 Grendel with a 16" barrel. I am using Hornady factory ammo 123gr SST for now. Plain to start reloading soon. But anyway I had this small buck come out on at about 40yd was able to find a window through the trees (had a snow and ice storm my shooting lanes are screwed up). Hit him and he ran about 50yds and died. The bullet didn't go through the deer and the jacket separated from the core. I got both pieces just under the skin. And the entrance hole was bigger than the exit hole. Is this normal for this caliber of did I just get a defective bullet?
