I think he recovered the first one, and not the second?? So he has one doe that the bullet fragmented on and the second he is claiming he shot it in the shoulder and it splattered without penetration. He must have been real close on that second deer.
I honestly think if all my shots were close, I would he using a 300 grain XTP and let that thing splatter inside and do the deed.
i call BS on the deer walking around a couple days later w/ no issues. i bet he never touched the second deer. i have had good luck w/ SW bullets
