Sure, if you are shooting a thug in your home...
I've killed plenty of deer with rounds that stayed in them, from 22-250s to patched round balls...
But for most mortals who can't track like a Shawanee, an exit hole helps put more blood on the ground...A whitetail can run 50-125 yards with a good lung shot...I once saw a doe run 100 yards after shot with a 130gr Sierra GameKing from a .270 and a 100gr Sierra GameKing from a .243...Both bullets went through the lungs, one from left to right, the other when she whirled from right to left...
The only good thing about a PowerBelt is they load easy and they load easy...Will they kill deer??? Sure they will...
BUT THERE ARE MUCH BETTER BULLETS OUT THERE ESPECIALLY IF A HUNTER CAN USE SABOTS!!!!!!!!!
For those of you that live in States where your Division of Wildlife is dictating that you have to use a bullet the size of the bore then you are handicapped and have to abide by the law...It's too bad that those states wildlife departments are so ignorant but it is what it is......
