Tried a 85 bthp.on two deer before, both were Angled shots deer ran 70-100 yards and died. Very little blood trail and entrance and exit holes were very similar, small!
Never used the 85 gr again.
I did have very good luck with the 100 gr gameking, every deer shot struggled to make it past 50 yards and exit holes were impressive.
