The biggest problem Ive seen with the Rage 2 blade is they don't like to pass through the opposite side, especially on heavy framed bucks. Ive already cleaned and gutted 15+ deer shot with Rage and 9 of those were non pass throughs. Sure all those deer were dead and on the meat pole, but most were near perfect double lung or heart shots. You take a heavy mature deer hit a little high or shot quartering away and your not going to have a blood trail without a pass through. The "huge" entry hole wont mean squat.
