[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2411384, member: 30902"] Well I can shoot up to 5 WT and 3 Mule Deer each year in TX plus unlimited hogs and exotics so I get a lot more opportunities for failure than most. I can't remember losing a deer with a BT but I did have some blow up really shallow horribly wounding, but still leaving them extremely mobile. I'm lucky those were all in big wheat fields giving me lot's of opportunities for follow up shots. More often than not though, taking a heart lung shot everything in their chest just turned to red jello whether I had an exit or not, frequently I did not. Still we did have quite a few run 50-100yds or more before cratering. The last twenty years I've hunted much brushier country and a lot of CRP where follow up shots are unlikely so I want something I can count on punching the shoulders and slicing through the spine every time.
