Got this doe this morning.
She dressed out at 111#.
Took her with a Marlin 336 .30-30 handloads with my cast bullet.
Load was 180gr GC rounds nose over 30 gr of W748. This load gave me an avg. velocity of 1865 fps.
Doe was quartering to me and the bullet entered just behind right shoulder and exited offside about 6 inches ahead of her left hip. Broke a rib on the entrance and took out three ribs on the way out. Internal damage was "impressive".
She ran about 30-40 yards back up the hill she had come down, did a back flip and expired.
Entrance wound
Exit wound
