What are you shooting out of it? Never really hunted with one but will try one this season. Most shots are under 100 where I hunt.

I've always shot Hornady 100gr out of mine. Deer hate em..


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Fusion 95 gr, you'll thank me later.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

After you decide on which bullet you'll be shooting start a new thread and ask about the battery life of those little lights you shine around to try to make the blood trail show up.



No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

I’ve shot a deer with my daughters and it left very little blood. Luckily it went 20 yards and DRT.

Fusions and Barnes and Nosler Accubonds have done as much damage, left as much blood, and killed just as quick as anything else I’ve ever shot deer with..... deer are deer. If they run, they run on some shots...don’t matter if it’s a 180gr 30-06 or a 90gr 243.....good exits make things easier with either.
