Any idea on velocity? Bullet shape and autopsy pics?

The bullet is an Accurate 50-470T. No idea as to velocity, shot my chronograph in the spring and haven't replaced it yet. As to autopsy..... Head shot at thirty yards. No pictures, but you could park a canoe in the path the bullet made.

Those C. Sharps rifles are just a pure pleasure to gaze on. Having a deer as its ground cloth is even better. That 50/90 has to pack a wallop but good with a 470 grain boolit. My 355 grain pure lead conical out of the muzzleloader is pretty light compared to that cartridge. Image 3 deer standing together would have a hard time stopping that freight train.
Thanks for sharing.

In the words of Teddy Roosevelt Speak softly and carry a Big Stick! Fine deer taken with a Fine weapon.

A Boone & Crockett chronograph. I got a couple of those.
Nice deer and really nice rifle.
