Nice deer. Congrats and happy eating.

That is a beautiful doe you shot there. I can just picture all the excellent meals she will provide. Congratulations on making an excellent shot. Nothing better then shooting them and they drop where they stand. Kind of takes the need for a blood trail a mute point.

Did the XTP do a lot of internal damage? Again, congratulations on an excellent deer.

thanks to all!
yes Cayugad, took out both lungs, and jellied the heart. i lost the off side front shoulder totally. it was just a mess. Idid not recover the XTP. it is in the pond bank. also did some damage to the spine. looked to me like it was from the cavitation in the chest cavity. To say the least i was impressed with this combo out of my apex. and it shoots tight groups. To be honest, I think it is a bit much for whitetail, but it sure does the job. and you are right, lol, mo worries about how much of a blood trail you have, if they are laying in it, right where you shot them.

When it comes to Whitetails.. I like a bullet that works a little too much.... In my one rifle I shoot 120 grains of Graf's & Sons 2f Black Powder and a .430 300 grain XTP in a crushed rib sabot. It will shoot excellent groups. And while I have not had the chance to shoot a deer with that load, I have no doubt about the outcome if I should get the chance.
