re: My bullet saved me from the worst shot I've made on a deer in 30 years yesterda

Funny you should mention the PSP because the first time I did this that's what I was using. I was 14 years old. It was also 125 gr. out of this same rifle but I did hit the second rib with it.

It did the same thing and I recovered the bullet, 85% intact right under the skin on the opposite side. Since then I've been using the Noslers cranked up to this speed and this is the first one I ever stopped inside the deer. And I've killed more deer than I can remember in that time. That's why when we got down there and I didn't see any blood I was just stumped on what could have happened. I knew she got hit hard but I'd never seen this round not make a HUMONGOUS exit wound.

Apparently, the contents of the guts are much tougher to punch through than a couple of ribs and a heart.
