[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2060477, member: 101791"] Twice I have taken off either the front legs of a deer, or the hind legs at the knees. The kept going on a rake, but they didn't stop, but didn't go to far either. I looked at hundreds of wound channels over the years. Some bullets come apart and blood shot the animal. Others pass threw the animal and don't open up at all. Target bullet have thicker jackets to retain there shape, which stabilizes the bullet during there flight down range. That creates far more accurate bullets, but they don't open up. Elk seen to have away of closing up those wounds on the exterior to shut off the bleeding. I know I have track one all day. Be clear not my shooting either. I hate loosing animal no matter who shot the animal. I will help if I am in the area, and come across the problem. [/QUOTE]
