Default second gameking failure

Should have learned from last years experience. just about the same scenario as last year. Minnesota whitetail doe about 160 pounds, 150yrds broadside shot. aimed for the shoulder, knocked deer right of its feet. deer gets back up, runs off very little blood found, searched for about 2 hours lost all blood sign. This Has happened 2 years in a row almost same deal. I am shooting 270 win with 130 grain sierra Gamekings. It is very accurate at the bench ( just for fun we were shooting water filled milk jugs at 300yds) so I know I was hitting where I was aiming. Its to late for me anymore this year to try a different bullet, so I am going to try for neck shots ( don't like to) until I get a different bullet figured out. looking at the Accubond or Interbond bullet now. I would prefer a bullet that wouldnt explode on impact at 3100fps like I think the gamekings are doing. If you would please help me to choose a bullet that I can put through a shoulder blade at 100 to 300 yards a still perform equally well. I like the accuracy of the gamekings but not the end result. Thanks again, Steve
