Quilly,

I just re-read my last post and found that the last paragraph came across rather harsh. I guess that is the nature of the emotionless internet.

My point is that there is no panacea of deer bullets. IMO, they all work as long as you hit the animal where you are supposed to. I've killed a ton of stuff with Core-lokts, never a problem. Stubblejumper killed a boatload of game with BTs and hasn't had a problem. I know people that use power points, partitions, failsafes, interlocks, and others without problems. I'll tell you what, none work well with a gut shot.

If you are getting 1.08 inch groups from Gamekings in your 30-06 then that is what you should use. I wish I could get them to shoot that well in my 308. I get 1.5 inch groups, which isn't bad on an average of 50 yard shots.

BTW, the 4 pointer I shot 2 years was 20 feet or so and not 35 yards. There was a fist sized exit hole.
