RE: 22-250 for deer hunting
"One of my hunting buddies shot a doe last weekend with his bow. Said he could see 6" of arrow stick out both sides of her. We couldn't find a drop of blood."
Several years ago i shot asmall buckon Ft. Sill with a crossbow. The bolt was sticking out both sides. The buck took off and there was not a drop of blood to follow. Heard a vehicle stop on a nearby road when i was trying to track the buck. In about five minutes the vehicle drove off.
Few days later i met a drill sergeant hunting in the same area. He told me that a buck with a "shortarrow" in it droppeddead right in front of him a few days before and that he had taken it and checked it in.Told him that the bolt had green and white fletching. Yep, it was the deer i shot. He said there was only acouple drops of blood on the road where the buck fell.
