Hi all i shot a roe doe last night about 130 yrds ,the shot reaction was good but it ran in to cover where i lost sight of it . when i got to impact sight there was no blood apart from the tinest bit of pink frothy blood ,so i new it was hit in the lungs but no other trace s of blood any where !
Enter the dog who set off stongly and then proceeded to find and hold for me about 80 yrds away a very strong doe that was still very fit !!!
i despatched it and on inspection found a small entry wound slighly low but a small exit wound as well a hole through both lungs but no trauma in side at all ,it was like a full metal jacket had been used gone straight through causing very little damage !
i am using 150 grain federal fusion ammmo in .308 ,i have been very pleased with it so far but am a bit concerned with this .
Thank goodness for the dog as that deer would not have been found has anybody else experienced any thing like this ?
