You're probably way ahead of me on head count.
My tally over the past 15 years or so would probably be around 400 give or take. I used to keep a journal of everything I shot, what caliber, load, distance and date, too lazy now.
My shot of preference is about two inches below the ear on a line between the ear and shoulder. If I do that it severs the spine, they drop and paddle. Where I hunt it's quite dense.
If they are not DRT, especially at dark-thirty you generally don't find them unless you have hounds, which I don't.
I think a lot is personal preference. In the 17's 20's and 22's' I have and continue to use Hornady's.
In the 6MM up I tend to use Nosler.
Over the last several years I've been using more and more Accubonds.
Ballistic tips are my go to in the 130/.277, 180/8mm, 200gr Ballistic S/T/338 for hoglets, but I still load and shoot a few others...
Best,
GWB
