Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Bullets recovered from deer

Ok, I'll play, although I haven't weighed them and don't know the exact velocities. I always go out of my way to recover a bullet if possible but most are pass throughs.

.308 Norma Magnum, Parker-Hale - 180 gr Norma SP Factory load (probably a Hornady interlock)- 170 lb buck - 100 yards - Quartering to me - DRT, hit just inside on-side shoulder, recovered in front of off-side ham.


.32 Win. Spl., Winchester 94 - 170gr Winchester Power Point Factory load - 130 lb buck - 40 yards - Quartering away slightly - DRT, hit behind on-side shoulder, recovered in off-side shoulder


.35 Rem., Remington 7600 Carbine - 150 gr Remington Core-Lokt Factory load - 140 lb buck - 50 yards - Broadside - Ran about 60 yards, recovered in off-side ribs


.300 Savage, Remington 700 BDL - 180 gr DWM "TaperLok" Factory load - 105 lb doe - 15 yards - Quartering to me - DRT, Hit in on-side shoulder, recovered in off-side ribs, shed jacket


9x57R, Custom Martini - 200 gr .356" RNSP, unknown manufacture, "Quality Cartridge" Custom ammo - 100 lb doe - 60 yards - Broadside - DRT, High shoulder shot, took out spine, recovered in off-side shoulder


.45 Win. Mag, T/C Contender 10" - 230 gr Speer Gold Dot Handload - 140 lb buck - 40 yards - Broadside - DRT, Hit behind shoulder, recovered in off-side ribs - See the "Gold Dot" in center?


Just for grins, my latest "recovery": .22 Short, Browning Auto-22 - CCI 27 gr HP - Big ass fox squirrel - only bullet I've ever recovered in a squirrel. Expanded like a fine deer bullet!
