Default RE: Best Whitetail bullet

I had two bad experiences with ballistic tip bullets. Dropped two deer in their tracks with them, but the bullet seem to just explode on impact. There were no exit wounds on either of them. The problem was visible when they were skinned out, the shoulder meat (entry hole) was just pulverized (blue/purple in color) and had to be discarded. I haven't used ballistic tips since, to explosive for me IMHO. As mentioned before, power point, and cor-lokts are good choices. FYI, both deer were shot with a 270 at 80-90 yards. Just my .02
