Default RE: Pass Thru???

ORIGINAL: frontier gander

100 grains grains, 5 yard shot = 80 yard tracking job, no blood, Or My way, 80 grains pyro, 80 yard shot, 5 yard tracking job with massive blood trail.

Hes wanting pass through. IMO all pass through does is put all the bullets energy into the dirt.

If his bullet goes completely through the body cavity and then is found under the hide, He got pass through.
That is NOT the traditional meaning of pass thru. As for putting energy in the dirt,
is it better for a bullet to loose all it's energy inside the deer, or for it to enter the deer, expand and travel the entire chest cavity, blow thru a rib, the hide and then exit"? Which is best? A bullet not traveling has completed it work, it no longer has any killing power. Pretty obvious that it is the bullet that passes thru has done more "bullet work" (dismembering flesh, organs, etc) than the one that stopped in the cavity of an animal. Chap Gleason
