the group that i hunt with all shoot 100 grains of either 777 or pyrodex pellets. we have killed over 125 whitetails in the past 8-10 years. most have been killed with 295 powerbelts. i have killed 30 some myself and have yet to see a bullet come apart.
Amen for you, many have the same experience. Do you look for all bullets in the expired deer? Have you lost any animals? Do you only take broadside bow shots? Chap Gleason
chap, yes we always look for the bullets in expired deer,sometimes they pass thru ,sometimes they don't. we have lost only 1-2 animals ,most don't go out of site before dropping. and ,yes we always try to take good broadside shots at reasonable distances.i use PB'S because,yes tthey load easier,they also shoot great in all of our guns. last yr before the season 5 of us shot one time at 100yds with 5 different ML'S and we all shot at a the same 3in dot . we shot a 2in group with 5 guns and 295PB'S. they kill good and they shoot good so what more could you ask for. i just bought 200 295 copper hp last week at 21.30 for 50 thats as cheap as any sabot
