How is that possible with such a bad bullet that your ballistics chart shows? How can the relic round ball kill anything bigger than a chipmunk?
Explain please?
Pete,
The problem is not the terminal ballistics, it is all the environmental factors that can cause your shot to go where you never intended. When that happens, ofttimes the hunter laments, "I pulled the shot!" Maybe not. I'm not saying this to give anyone an alibi. What I care about is that this misplaced shot can cause unnecessary suffering and lost game. This is due to predictable factors, and is correctable.
