Maybe for the small southern deer.

For your big Indiana deer it's just not a wise choice unless it's a perfect behind the shoulder shot at close range.
You realize I'm talking about Barnes bullets right? I can't imagine any deer in Indiana being big enough that an all-copper bullet of 110gr wouldn't work on. If the rule change goes through and they allow rifles this year and I can get some to shoot less than 2" groups I plan on testing my 'theory'.


Interesting idea.

I wouldn't do it myself, simply because I already have the .270 with 130 grain bullets, but shooting is all about experimenting and I'd be interested to see how yours turns out.

The Tea Party Movement is pretty much the same as a bowel movement except that it smells worse and has far less in the way of intelligent content.
