[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1773177, member: 97196"] Could not find the projectile in the dirt. The wound channel was fairly unremarkable with a nickle-sized exit wound. The shot was a little high, slightly in front of the hind quarters, and disrupted the aorta leaving a prominent blood trail for about 100 ft before it dropped. The first buck was the most concerning as the 540 ya shot passed through just behind the front shoulder were we believed it was a perfect double lung shot. The video confirmed the shot placement. The buck dropped immediately and after struggling to regain his balance he bounced off never to be seen again. All we can figure is that it may have hit a little high but did not appear to be. I will give one of the the .257s a try as I won’t make a judgement after one misadventures [/QUOTE]
