[QUOTE="Hookdown, post: 1516720, member: 97455"] A bullet that doesn't exit has imparted all of its energy into the animal. Within reason and at short to mid ranges, with proper shot placement, usually this means the bullet has fragmented and created multiple wound channels. To me, those are GOOD things, and often make the existence of a blood trail irrelevant. I would even go so far as to say that a fragmenting bullet can often up your odds of success on a less than optimum shot, more than a solid core bullet. I have seen it happen. But I know others may disagree, and I'm ok with that. [/QUOTE]
