I have killed a bunch of deer with the 44/240 XTP. Almost all were bang flop.Shot one with a 45/300 XTP Mag. Only deer I ever lost with MZ. Shoulder shot, decent blood trail,long track,lost deer. Maybe a bad shot placement? I will never know. All I do know is the shoulder was broken,dragging leg,and the deer fed the coyotes,not me. I switched bullets.
