[QUOTE="Nuclear Worker, post: 1515782, member: 105422"] Obviously I chose the wrong ammunition. But with a true length of 11” I guess it just doesn’t have the velocity. People have talked about need to shoot in the head if you want to drop it. This is not a stand gun this was built for the purpose of still hunting and making drives in the swamp. So standing deer are very rare. I just can’t put my faith in a round that can’t leave a blood trail on a good shot at 40-50 yards regardless of the bullet used. I realize I chose the wrong bullet but even with the right bullet and a marginal shot would you find the deer? Not willing to take the chance. I am going with the 6.5 Grendel in a little longer barrel. Might not be quite as handy as the 12 inch but if it kills better than she will deal with it. For the guys that use the 300 bo and it works for you great. [/QUOTE]
