Default RE: Lightfield Slugs

Light fields ARE THE ONLY THING i SHOOT OUT MY 20. My expierence's are the same as yours as far ae penetration goes. I've yet to have a deer go more than 50yds after being hit, a few dropped in their tracks. On longer shots say 80-100yds I've had pass throughs, the short shots I have yet to get a pass through. I think as the bullet slows down the penetration increases probably do to less bullet expansion. Every year I buy the latest and greatest slugs to try, and I always end back where I started shooting the lightfields.

ORIGINAL: Bowflex

In the past two years I have shot two good sized bucks at close (40 yards) and very close (15 yards) rangewith the Lightfield 20 gauge EXP's. In both instances the slugs did not pass through. Both deer dropped within 50 yards of being hit and both were double lungor heart and double lung shots.

Has anyone else had this type of performance from Lightfields? Or is it just a 20 gauge thing? These are by far the most accurate slugs in my gun and I don't see any reason to change.

Good Hunting,
Bowflex
