Default RE: Roundballs

ORIGINAL: Sharp Shooter

I have 54cal Renegade that I shoot 100gr FFG and a .530 roundball out of. I also have a 58cal that I shoot 120gr FFg and a .570 roundball out of. My question is, what can I expect when I hit a deer (assuming correct placement). How soon should it drop? Will it make a good blood trail if it runs? Im not really sure what to expect when I shoot something with a roundball. I know that the 58cal should put them down real quick. What about the 54cal? I have no doubt in the roundball just wondering what to expect.

Thanks for your answers

It will probably drop in its tracks or run only a very short distance. Those are powerful loads, and you will get a good blood trail from the pass through.
