She went about 20 yards and piled up. That big chunk of lead from my .54 did a number on her lungs. I'm pretty sure I'll never duplicate that particular shot.
She didn't run that far, she was thrown!!!!!! I still have my Renegade in 54 and get it out on occasion and shoot it. That was my first ML and took 4 deer with it.
