hi to all
been working up loads for the 243 mainly for fox but one i can use on the smaller deer types. came down to using speer 85 grain sp went out yestaday to give them a go. came across a roe doe about 100 meters away gave it a shot behind the shoulder it never moved and droped on the spot out with the knife and what a mess the heart and part of the lungs came out like soup never had that much internal damage before but the exit wound was only about 1" small for that amount of damage. just finished on the deer when i saw a fox working his way along the wood about 150 yards away so got down and gave it a round in the front of its chest it just dropped. the bullet exit wound was just by its back leg
i just cannot think how much damage that bullet had done on the inside.
