First year of ML hunting for deer and we have noticed little to no blood after making good vital shots. We are all shooting T/C Triumphs with 150gr 777 and 250gr Hornady SST sabots. In most cases there would be no blood from point of impact out to 40-50 yards then very little blood until we find our deer on the ground in which there is massive blood. After shotgun hunting in Iowa for 25+ years I was very surprised at this with our M/L's. Is this common or were our results uncommon even though same experience on 3 out of 3 deer? I should mention all shots taken were within 70 yards.
