I'm gonna convert you or you're gonna be my Lex Luthor.
Did you see the other deer I showed pics of a week or so ago from this same round in my buddies .308? Perfect heart shot. Hit ribs coming and going and blew a nice hole out the other side.
It's whitetails. Penetration is over rated. Kill it. Don't knock holes in it. You aren't bow hunting.

Yep. Impressive.

My thing is, I'm not overly concerned with putting a deer's dick in the dirt right where he stands. Give me a good mushrooming bullet and a complete pass through so I can find it. It's worked well for a couple hundred years and it continues to work well today. It aint broke so I aint fixing it. That's why you'll never catch me hunting whitetails with something more than a .30-06, which I consider to be boarderline too much for whitetails.

Penetration and an effective exit wound don't seen overrated when you spend hours on your hands and knees looking for a barely existent blood trail after a deer has run into a pine thicket.......
