ORIGINAL: Nolehoe

BTW: Has anybody tried the Harvestor Scorpion or Scorpion GT, they look pretty good on the website.?
Yes, but not on game,not accurate enough for hunting in my Savage:

I went with the Parker Ballistic Extreme, which shot like this:

I've shot 4 deer with it this year. 1 went 20 yards the 3 others were boom flops. The don't penetrate as deeply as I would like, therefore don't exit on quartering away shots, so I am switching to Barnes.
