Got this mediumsized doe last friday with a 45cal 275gr PowerBelt, pushed by 120grains of Shockey's Gold, and using the powerstem breech plug, 22 yards away in 20ft tree stand.
Wow, what a hole[
]
These are the only fragments to make it thru the vitals to the other side:
Last year we only used 220g PB's and
80 grains of Shockey'sGold, and punched hules thru and thru.
Here are some picks of PB's that I recovered from the shooting range--Dry sandy clay, 112 yards: Left to right--275 grain--1st is 70 grains of powder, 2nd and 3rd are 120grains powder.
4th is 300grain Platinum and 120grains powder, 5th/last is 70 grains powder.
From now on, 70-80 grains of powder is all I use with PowerBelts
Very Good Info But - Don't need these Massive Wound pics to describe Bullet Performance.
