A Tyranid Prime has joined a group of 6 Raveners, and is the closest model relative to the shooting unit.
After Resolving To Hit and To Wound Rolls, 5 S7 Ap2 Plasma rounds are left (assume none of the models have cover), all of which the controlling player successful passes Look out Sir! saves on. The controlling player then chooses 5 seperate models with 6" in his unit to allocate the wounds to.

The question I pose YMDC is, is there any rule explicitly stating that unsaved wounds on multiwound creatures must be consolidated? Is it perfectly legal to have 5 2 Wound Raveners?

The way I read it, mind you it was while going down I-81 going about 80 in the passenger seat of a Hyundai.

Wouldn't the closest ravener take hits until it's dead and no longer the closest?

No - you can allocate to any model within the 6", you are not forced to allocate to the nearest model when you bump the wound using LOS!

Not that I can see in any case.
