I managed to kill a doe this morning after what was starting out to be a uneventful deer season(not seeing a single animal till yesterday)
I shot her with my 45-70 shooting this boolit made of 25-1 alloy http://www.accuratemolds.com/bullet_detail.php?bullet=46-420C-D.png, the shot was through the joint on the front shoulder destroying the heart and exiting midships the opposite side.At the shot the deer did the classic heart shot where she jumped in the air legs running and ran 40 yds and did the big bore angle dance where she ran in a circle at an angle before tipping over for good.I have seen this in deer before when I shot one with a 54 cal muzzleloader with REAL boolits.The blood trail was as though someone had splashed a bucket of blood down after her as she ran,unbelievable.This weekend was the opening of our gun deer season in WI.and it marks my 44th consecutive season.
This boolit delivers excellent accuracy out to 100 yds. probably further / that is where my testing concluded / easily getting consistent moa at that range.
I did not recover the boolit but what I could ascertain from the impact site it worked famously.
