How was the blood trail with these and how far did they travel after being shot?


The two high shoulder shots (1 fallow and the thar) went straight down. The other fallow went maybe 15 yards, and the red about 25 yards. 15 to 30 or so yards is about what I have come to expect with the .223 and a 'just below half way' broadside chest shot on deer.

Sorry, didn't notice the blood trails as they were easily located without looking for blood.
