My wifes first deer was with a .223. The bullet didnt have enough energy to pass throught the other side. Bullet ended up bouncing off the rib cage and went up to snap the back bone. Dropped the doe on the spot, but if it had not hit the back bone it would have been a hard track with only the entrance hole.
