Default RE: The Hornady 250grn FTX does the job.

ORIGINAL: spaniel

Bullet would only have been going 1600fps or so on impact...if it opened on a groundhog, still room to slow down and perform on a deer I think.
My problem is i had such bad luck with this bullet on 4 Deer last year. After listening to Lee i would like to give this bullet another chance. I only shot the Deer with 110grns of BH209. That bullet probably wasnt even going 2000fps at the muzzle. If i increase the BH209 since the core of the bullet is harder the bullet should mushroom/expand and kill the Deer alot better or more efficiently???????
