hydrostatic shock and tissue damage Quote:Why ????
Varmints and preds I can see it, but big game ? I'll take 2 holes over 1 anytime . Say you shot a deer/bou in the shoulder and it does not go down, no exit make tracking way tuffer. he will not travel very far probally less than 50 yards. Quote: Even worse gut shot angleing forward no exit. Fat plugs the hole and the blood trail if any is MIA. Again tracking not easy.
if it is a gut shot I would rather have massive damage than a pencil hole in and out. Quote:BTW.....
I killed 2 'bou in Canada a few years back. 243win 95gr NBT ,got exits on both and bumped them in their tracks. They anit that tuff ! Now the big bears...... nbt are a good bullet that is designed for only 50% weight retention transfering most of the energy into the animal compared to the barnes 95% weight retention that just poke holes.
