Default RE: Knock down power

I agree, I shot a nice doe yesterday at 100yds. She was slightly quartering to me, the barnes struck her left side taking out one lung and continuing on through the liver, complete pass through. The doe was standing on top of a hill when I sqeezed the trigger, by the time the smoke cleared she had ROLLED to the bottm of the hill and was dead. This was only the second animal I have harvested with this setup, but DANG
I have yet to contact any major bone of anykind, but still get bang flop results! The shock factor these barnes put on deer is devasting, the internal organs that I have hit, heart, lung,liver on the 2 deer I have shot have been devasted. Not just a hole, but a massive wound channel. I'm sold thats for sure, I would recommend these things to anyone.

You shouldn't have any problem whatsoever. With several elk we have taken with this bullet, it seems theyexpand ideally at longer ranges. The ones we dug out of elk at 175 and 211 yards were folded out likea fan blade. The ones at close range tended to fold back against the shank and break off a petal or two- without coming apart. These were all bullets launched at around 2,000 to 2,100 fps. Overall, this is one of the most lethal muzzleloading bullets ever devised.
