RE: 295 Powerbelt exit wound
Chap
I live on a small island off of Cape Cod not known for big deer just a lot. We do have some good bucks though and I would hate to lose out on one when the opportunity presents itself. Most of my shots are 50yds or less and a few times they may get out to 100yds. Most of the island is covered with dense stands of scrub oak and pitch pine or wetlands that are impenetrable and much of the open field areas are private or unhuntable due to the proximity of houses. I also like to get closer to my game as it makes for more of a challenge. So this is why I went with the 295 Powerbelt and had a bow shot. I used SW's last year and didn't get the good expansion just pass through pinholes at a closer range.

I am using the Williams peep on the X-7. I debated a scope but decided against it after sighting in the peep. With the shorter shots I see I felt that the scope would limit my ability to quickly acquire the target in the dense brush.
