Congrats! Our alternative meathods season just ended yesterday here in Missouri. I can't make up my mind which boolit to have in the cylinder when I take my SBH out next fall. I just cast several of the Devastator booits but I love the Keith boolit too. Anyone done a broadside shot on a mature whitetail with the Devastator? I'm curious as to how much lung tissue is removed from the body with proper boolit placement. I prefer double lung / heart region shots no matter the choice of weapon. There are some large wild hogs in my hunting area and I always have packed Keith boolits for them.
All will work, the only thing I avoid is any bullet/boolit that stops inside a deer.
Elmer's conclusion as well, one hole in and one hole out.
Yes, yes and yes.

I've heard all the arguments about wasted energy and reduced killing power when there's an exit hole.
I've heard that a bullet that stops inside kills better because there's more expansion, more damage of critical tissue, more energy dump.
All true - sometimes.
But sometimes things don't go as planned.
Sometimes excrement occurs. Hunt long enough and you'll see amazing exceptions to the ordinary.
For those hopefully rare occasions when things don't go as planned - I want an exit wound. I want a blood trail.

Looking for a Hensly &Gibbs #258 any thing from a two cavity to a 10cavityI found a new one from a member here
Well I went back out to the blind. The night I shot the deer it was overcast I had about 15 minutes of shooting time left. So it was getting dark early. What I thought was 75 yards was really about 50 in the daylight. Can't judge distance very well but at least I'm honest.
