RE: deer bullets
id have to say a nosler ballistic tip.......dad uses them in 165 gr and out of like 6-8 deer ive watched him shoot only one ran off and we cant figure that one out.....small doe.....quartering towards....busted the closet leg and sent the bullet clear through the body and exited righ before the ham on the opposite side......lung and liver destroyed......not a drop of blood either....dad knew he didnt miss at 30 yards...so he followed indents in the leaves for 80yds before he found her piled up.....dont know HOW she made it.....but all the other deer hes shot dropped like brikes.....all double lungers.......ill use them this year....maybe in 150gr or maybe ill use something else just to see what pther bullets do.....but all the horror stories you may hear about ballistic tips must be rumors because ive never seen one do anyhting bad......all blew right htrough.....and arent as explosive as many make them out to be....but they knock em dead......as will just about any 3006 bullet you put in the boiler room of a deer.......
