Thread: Meat Contamination

I’m not to worried about bullet lead in the meat. What I don’t like is gut bag contamination, like last week I shot a couple of deer one was high above me quartering on I shot her through the shoulder and out the other side just before the leg but a bullet fragment went through the backsteak pulling through some gut bag, so had to cut that out. Then next day another red deer chest on shot seconds before it disappeared, clean through the centre of the of the deer and out the back leg. When skinning and boning the leg the gut bag followed the bullet that leg was no good. A proper broad side shot or a lesser caliber would of been better but I like quick kills with my long range rig.
