RE: poor blood trails, switch gun/ammo?
 
Schobs,as mentionedCore Lokts and Power Points should work fine most of the time. Try shooting them a little lower.[/align][/align]Also be careful shooting any slug gun 150 to 200 yards.I'm not saying it can't be done. But even the latest and greatest1900 to 2000 fps sabot slugs are tremendously effected by wind drift. With a 10 MPH crosswind most will be off 11 to 15 inches. Where a 30-06 will only be off 3 to 4 inches.

Schobs, I forgot to ask, are you using expandable bullets like Core Lokts or Power Points, or are you using full metal jacket bullets?
