Ok, Uh, it was placed well. square on the onside shoulder. Your beloved powerbelt failed to penetrate thru the shoulder,broke it and traveled to up to the onside of the deers neck and stopped! All this at 42 yards. Launched from a rem 54 cal. 105grs of T7, loose powder. The deer did not bleed and what I could find of the bullet was in pieces. Yup,it worked well,sort of.................
I had almost the exact same thing happen to me.The only differences was the deer was 25 yrds away and I was shooting a 270 with 130 gr Coreloks.It should have penetrated to the off shoulder but deflected off the bones on the near shoulder and traveled half way up the neck.[bleep] happens.Deer ran about 40 yrds and piled up.[bleep] happens.
