RE: 245g Powerbelt Results for Saxman
The 245g powerbelt with 80g will do the job easily. The deer i shot that stood like pic #1, The 225g powerbelt sucked the lungs deep into the chest cavity and shredded them. The bullet took out the heart. The 1/4ing away deer my dad shot was just a friggin mess on the exit hole. But it was nice to see that 225grainer did an excellent job.
I my self wasnt much of a shoulder shot shooter but after doing it thats all i am going to use and that includes with PRB out of my .50 or .54 muzzys.
Got to remember, There isnt any heavy bone with those shot placements pictured. Its just a flexy cartlidge type.
Ha! Just noticed your texas heart shot on the deer. I've had those kind of shots in my sites, But i will not do it, Thats just something i can not bring my self to do. I'll let it pass and be satisfied that i saw a deer that day. As long as i see animals during hunting season i stay happy in a good mood, Its those days that drag on and on and you dont see anything is what really tests your nerves.
