100gr pellets is to much! How many times have i said that? The first person i helped out with that was Saxman when he shot a deer with the 245 and 2 pellets.

Next time take some pics so i can take a look at them and see where exactly they hit and may have come into contact with.

Use 80gr 2f pyrodex with that 245 and even the 295 and you'll be whisling dixie.

If not, send those left over Powerbelts to me as my brother and father use them on mule deer in thier sidelocks.

If you want to use a magnum load for 50 yards shot and enjoy the recoil try the 300 or 338 platinum.
