One shot - two kills

[Hiply]

Two pronghorns standing side by side, profiles to me so they were "stacked" in my scope's view but I could clearly see there were two, rolling  block with high velocity ammo, single headshot on the closest one to me (one 3 star, one 2 star...aimed at the 3), both dropped dead.  Either the game code decided the round went clean through the first and had enough juice left to kill the second or maybe pronghorn #2 died of a heart attack?

You can only get collats with high velocity ammo.

it would be so cool if that were a thing....to be able to pierce 1 or 2 bodies/carcasses and even catch a third. a max of 3 kills per bullet. so often I thought that the dude who stood face to face (chatting) with the guy whose brain I just blew out clean, well he ought to at least drop to the floor because of shock or whatever, but no he acts like he heard a shot in the distance or something. the bullet should go through and at least hurt him, we all know the engine makes enemies all the same height so if their heads are lined up they ought to catch a headshot aswell

I pulled it off once and looks like the same 2 I killed and the same place- Great Plains.

I got a collat on 2 players on a train once.

I have gotten 2 enemies (npc) with one shot a couple of times, it's rare though, but from the top of my head I remember at least 3 times, 2 of them were in consecutive days so that's why I remember it.

Never gotten animals though

There's a reason why High Velocity ammo costs the most.

You can shoot through multiple NPCs. You can shoot through multiple animals. You can shoot through an enemy and set off dynamite behind them. You can kill a rider and his horse simultaneously whether head-on or from behind. 
 

When I encounter the Lemoyne Raiders camp with a cop tied to a post, I always line my shot up so I 'accidentally' hit the hostage through a Raider. This spares me their cantankerous wailing about cutting them free while I'm busy looting in the aftermath.
