[QUOTE="Dorkus, post: 3917958, member: 47598"] I have question on this set up that I hunt with and have for years. I bought a bunch of this factory ammo over the years and have about 8 boxes, so I am kind of stuck with it for a while. I know I could switch brands but want that to be the last option if possible. My question is, I have noticed that more times than not, when I shoot a deer it never drops. It does die but I would estimate 90% of the time they run at least 50-75 yards before they expire. It always leaves a good blood trail so I don't lose deer, I just think it is not typical or what I should expect for the $$ I paid for the ammo. This happened twice this year and I don't understand why. Both kill zone shots, so I am not missing. Other set ups from black powder to other guns/ammo I usually have the deer fall or go no further than a few feet. Any thoughts on this factory ammo? My expectations too high? I am curious as to what everyone thinks. [/QUOTE]
