How big of a wound channel did that 240 grain XTP make?
It's a strange thing. The exit hole in the does neck is visible. Just behind the opposite shoulder there is a small tuft of hair: That is where the bullet hit her. The chest cavity was full of blood. Not sure of the condition of the lungs: The heart was intact. It was dark when i field dressed the animal.
This morning i looked for a hole in the chest cavity that deer and could not find one. i was sitting in a stand that is 18 feet off the ground and the bullet hit the deer at a pretty good angle. She had her head down when hit.
