Glad that you had good luck with the PTX bullets. My luck was not so good. Shot an elk at about 90 yards with a 250 grain PTX driven by three 50 grain Pyrodex pellets. The bullet did not expand, just went through the lungs and the blood trail petered out. Five of us looked for her for seven hours. Another hunter found her the next morning.It was very cold and the meat was still good so he took her out.
