Another thing to think about. Those cheap shots, if I remember correctly, are pure lead. Now with you only shooting 2 pellets you aren't pushing them all that hard but you still may want to avoid close range shots on the shoulder. I don't have one on hand to check the hardness of them but I think they are fairly soft. So if you have a shot on a deer from 10 to 40 yards, try to tuck it right behind the shoulder avoiding the thicker bone. I have heard they actually do a fairly good job bringing down whitetail but I have no first hand experience connecting with them. Good luck this weekend.
