go back and look today. I had to use a loaner 243 about 20 years ago in Sweetwater after my 7400 messed up. I was shooting the hornady customs . I shot a nice 8 point one evening .I waited a while after the shot,looked for blood with no luck. I went to bed that night sick. went back the next morning still no blood. I found a trail going into the cutover where the deer ran out of the field so I walked down it. 50 yards later there he was and not a single visible drop of blood. good luck with the recovery.

Sounds like a hit, perfectly healthy deer don't walk in on all fours and then run off on three after a shot. Might be a high shot with no exit, therefore little or no blood. Deer may be dead , but very hard to find. Could be hit in the leg, keep an eye out for a doe with a gimpy leg.

Go check near water, or down hill, or some thick stuff close by. If the bullet didnt exit she will habe to fill up with blood until she leaks.

Sounds like a hit to me. Could be a leg hit or it could be a good hit in the shoulder. With a leg hit, unless it just nicked her, you would likely find some bone or something at the hit site. Good luck. I'd look really good for a few hundred yards and see if she didn't pile up somewhere.
