Personally that is not my idea of great performance in a bullet. Entries look calibre sized and exits not much greater. An alert buck, standing and ready to run might have given a very different result.


The mono performed exactly as expected IMO. No surprises there.

Had the buck been standing and alert, I imagine he would have roughly gone 100yards and tipped over.

You done well. Congrats. I have taken several antelope and more then a few deer with a .223 and 22-250. Most with a 60 gr. Nosler partition, and a few with the Speer 70 gr. The bullets all did well.
