i have been reloading nosler 150 grain ballistic tip 3006 ammo since 1978 and have these bullets to break shoulders, backbones, necks, ribs and the ones that go through side-to-side don't hit the thickest bones in a deers body he msjority of the time but most of the time the bullets go through and they leave a fairly good blood trail ,Years ago shot 2 deer with new ballistic tip (30/06) ammo, 1st zero blood, not an exit wound but literally mush - jello like - on the inside when cleaning, just scrambled the insides but didn't exit. Thought it was odd, (long time corelok user) but chalked it up to "not sure why". Anyway, 2nd deer shot, same thing - no blood trail, no exit wound - but mush inside. Seems the velocity was so high on those bullets that they fractured into zillion pieces upon impact inside.... not like the coreloks that stay intact typically and mushroom thru...
