Liked the accuracy so much that I bought an entire case before I even shot an animal with them. Have since taken many deer with them, many in the 3-400 range and have been fairly impressed. My buck last season was 287 yards in the brush and never moved out of his tracks when I shot center shoulder. I did get clean exit and massive damage on the exit. Heart shot a big 8pt a few years ago at 30 yards and he only ran another 30 throwing blood everywhere. I haven't found fragments yet so the bullets must expand as expected because there's always massive damage around the bullet channel. My wife on the other hand has mad a few questionable shots with her creed that kinda leaves you scratching your head over the lack of blood. I'm not convinced yet that it's a total "go to". I miss the days of my 30-06 when tracking was never an issue.
