[QUOTE="jrock, post: 940518, member: 78569"] One doesn't need an exit wound to track a deer...if it piles up on the spot because a fragmenting type bullet mushed up its entire insides. Comes down to personal preference. I can imagine that a pass through and more blood on the ground would be helpful at long range shooting where the memory of marking the place the animal was standing fades on your long hike. I think a stronger bullet construction (more penetration) is the safety factor on a shot if you hit large bone. I think if one wants to pay attention to SD it is more linked to BC than "penetration."
