I double-lunged a blacktail doe with a 150-grain Remington CoreLokt at about 30 yards once. No blood trail at all, but I did find a piece of lung tissue about the size of my thumbnail. I just started working on concentric circles from that piece of tissue and found the deer, looking exactly like yours, about 40 yards away. I think the hit was too high for it to leak blood.

Change bullets if you like but don't be too surprised if the exact same thing happens again.
