[QUOTE="BCC72, post: 3100692, member: 125695"] With a rifle, 11 yards in Georgia. The Berger bullet you could say worked as I found the deer the next day about 250 yards away with no blood trail whatsoever. I only found it due to the fact the second Buck I shot at 40 yards the next day ran in the same direction. Both were perfect broadside shots. As accurate as they are, I won’t use Bergers if there’s any chance of close work again. I ranged both locations after the shots (especially the second) so I could go back and look for blood again. This was from a blind. I thought I’d missed. I was annoyed as I am super confident with that rifle. My thought on that is at that velocity, only one of the petals opened and steered the bullet. There was lung damage but you couldn’t see an entry or an exit. Not sure, just my guess. 30 yards with a Interlock absolutely walloped a whitetail at home in MT. Didn’t go 10yards. Spot and stalk. A bit closer with a bow, I don't range with my long bow. [/QUOTE]
