lost a doe
I lost one last night. she came out with another doe both mature, i shot about 60 yards away, and she dropped in her tracks. she twitched for a minute and i thought she was dead. i reloaded (muzzleloader) and before i could get loaded she got up and hobbled off. I found blood at the spot where she dropped and nowhere else there was also what looked to be a piece of cartlidge from the shoulder. I tracked for 2 hours that night and almost all day today I cant find her anywhere. I'm pretty sure its fatal, I'm just really feeling bad about this. I've never lost a deer before.
By the way I'm sorry for saying powerbelts are great I will no longer be using these bullets. They may be nice for others and for the other 2 deer I have killed with my muzzleloader they were perfect. But this situation seems all to like others I have herd with powerbelts.
