Default RE: Ammo for Deer

I agree with Hazmat's post down to the letter...

However, I hunt with a 7mm and have what I think (for myself) an acceptable solution to the "blast right through" problem (which does indeed exist)... I shoot ballistic tip bullets; especially when I am in the deep woods and making close-in shots (50yds or less). If I am in a field where I can get a 100 or 200+yd. shot, I will use "normal" rounds however. Only had one deer run off to where I had to really track hard for it and I attribute that one to a poor shot placement.

Cheers!
