My grandson killed a fork horn blacktail on the last day of late rifle season, a 30 yard shot with a 30-06. He was using blue tipped factory Barnes bullets and I'm not sure of the weight. His Dad told me that the bullet hit the buck's shoulder and only penetrated 8 inches or less. What??!!

With a grin in his voice, my son added, “The bullet went through a tree before hitting the deer.” laugh
