[QUOTE="Spino, post: 121469, member: 6052"] Mike / TX, I haven't had any luck shooting the BT out of my .270WSM. I bullets may be traveling a little fast & causing blow up without penetration. Some of the deer that have been shot @ have been under a 100yds. I know the bullet is leaving the muzzle @ 3290. Last year I loaned the gun to a hunting buddy & he shot @ two deer and I guess he was aiming @ the shoulder. We walked over to where he shot the deer and there was bone & meat on the ground, but very little blood (I hate it when this happens) we didn't have a blood trail to follow just a general direction in which the deer went. We didn't recover the deer. A shot to the ribs was different though. These deer were recovered. If I could ask what is your reload recipe for the .243? How fast are your bullets traveling? What model gun are you using? Thanks for the help Mike Or whomever wants to chime in with any info..... [/QUOTE]
