Pass throughs, good wounding, accurate bang flops DRT. We pulled one of the bullets out the soft soil bank behind the one deer, perfect mushroom, like perfect. I seem to recall posting pics somewhere? Have searched on here but can’t find them.
    Thats good to hear got a 100 120s they are bonded so should be good.Not your fancy wizz bang plastic tip though Thanks for the replys
