Thread: Calibre / Velocity / Projectile vs Meat Wastage

The heavier the projectile the less meat damage as a rule - a 130 sp in a 308 will damage more than a 150.
I like a hard projectile that exits. Accubonds open immediately and cut a hole straight through. Damaged shot meat from a carcase averages 5 litres - I always carry out the whole deer. Most animals will run for a few steps but always die quickly with a hole right through.
