I'm considering loading the subject bullet in my wife's .260 in order to reduce recoil and was wondering if any of you had experience with it on whitetails. Thanks!
Have taken a whitetail and a mulie so far this year with this exact combination.....
Exited both deer with heavy blood loss.....one deer went 20 yards the other 40 yards and were stone dead...both exits were 3/4" in diameter and small entrance...tissue damage was substantial....
The bullet directly hit the shoulder on the mule deer at 300 yards and I had 2 exits (see picture).....
The WTD was a direct behind the shoulder shot and no bone was hit with a clean exit hole....
Another bullet that many will disgaree with me on is the 100 grain Sierra HP...I used this for a while and I didn't have one deer leave its tracks.....
So far ithe 100 NP is an ideal round for deer but I will continue to test.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
