[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1954564, member: 101755"] The 130 AR Hybrids shoot great, but my wife shot one 90lb WT and we lost the deer. Had to use the buzzards to find it. I've bow hunted since the late 70's and shot tons of hogs, deer and exotic sheep so my tracking skills are very good. Any way zero sign of a hit at the spot she shot it 107 yards away, we seen the last two trees it went between before it disappeared. That was about 40 yards from where it was shot...zero blood there too. We seen the buzzards late in the next day and found it before that had touched it so I was able to examine the details of the shot. Entry was perfect in the crease behind the shoulder and recovered the bullet between the opposite shoulder and rib cage. The bullet didnt come any where close to making it through to the skin on the off side. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot_2018-12-20-23-36-33-1-1.png"]206981[/ATTACH] The 130gr bullet weighed 50grs. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot_2018-12-20-23-36-33-1-1.png"]206981[/ATTACH] Didnt try them on anything else. I went back to 129 SST out of her 26" 6.5 CM bolt gun. They have been great out of her rifle. So big vote for Hornady 129gr SST out of a 6.5 CM [/QUOTE]
