RE: Lightfield Slug performance on my deer
 

My inlaws swear by the Lightfield Sabot's... they are a bit less expensive than the others too.

only hit rib cage and no exit? $12.99 a box ouch ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! i would change slugs if i were you, accurate but man if you make a small mistake on placement all you are gonna have is a wonded suffering deer you cant find cause no blood trail . Just my 2 cents worth and probably doesn't matter ....................

I would want an exit as well. I shot a nice buck through both shoulders this year with Brenneke KO Sabots. They are $8 a box, shoot very well.

I think there are pros and cons on exit wounds. 1 half inch hole should bleed enough for a blood trail. I personally like the fact that all of the bullets eneregy is absorbed inside the body. My brother uses 20 gaugeFederal with the Barnes Expander and the last 2 bucks he shot did not have a exit hole and both deer fell dead where hit. Both were heart shots. Not saying one is right and other is wrong just what I prefer.

Im not to worried on exit holes while gun hunting either. Always good to have an exit wound with a bow tho. Bullets do enough damage exit or not.

A friend of mine on another board had some trouble with the primer not being seated enough to fire the round. The company sent him a new box and said he wasn't the only one to have this trouble.

nice job & great info on that ammo...

RE: Lightfield Slug performance on my deer
 

My experience with them was they were not really that accurate but not terribly bad either. That was from a box that I had sitting around from a few years ago, the price tag on it said$9.88. In the next few years they willprobablybe like $15 a box along with everything else going up.I do know that they leave a nice big nickle sized hole clean through the target though!

Try the Hornady SST's!

RE: Lightfield Slug performance on my deer
 

The Lightfield 20 gauge slugs almost never pass through, but they hit like a ton of bricks!
I hit a button buck onthursday with his head down and turned and it went through the back of his head and out the neck on the other side. The other deer I have hit have been broadside shots and none passed through. The deer never go more than 50 yards before they pile up.


Thanks for showing the pics, very informative.
