Also had a bad shot placement at 80m a bit far back she went 1.5 km, lucky I hunt with the dog to track them down. I don’t think they mushroomup enough as the projectiles punched straight through with small exit holes on 2 of them. They do work well on goats and probably be OK on fallow deer. Will try a few more and maybe try a rested prone shot instead of offhand.
So far I still think that the Lehigh’s 168gr CF is the quickest killer and the most amount of damage, next would be the Lehigh 194gr ME and had more bang flops hilar shot with these Lehigh’s bullets.
