I shot two deer this season with 243 Win. 80 grain hornady gmx, a 130 lb doe and a 290 lb buck. Both deer were about 30-40 yards away, both shot just behind the shoulder and both ran about 50 yards with great blood trails. The blood trail with the buck was just plain stupid. He was pouring out both sides and from the nose.
Sample size of only 2, but I feel sure they'll punch thru double shoulders and I plan to find out this fall.
