Very short blood trail. (@20' ).
There are two local sources for factory ammo. Cost varies from @$1.10- $1.50 per shot. (I am looking at getting into reloading to cut costs. )
As a short range rifle, it does what it's supposed to do.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.
