quote:agreed, as long as the bullet makes it to the inside before it "balistics".
Turns the insides to mush
quote:Or when you hit the shoulder and the balistic tip does what it is designed to do and blows up on that shoulder,,,, only problem is that deer can run forever on 3 legs...
I do worry of the day that I get a bad shot and no exit wound
quote:I can't say I blame you for that, just hope that it ain't the buck of a lifetime and one of the above scenarios happen..
I will finish off the box before I buy something else however.
Balistic tip bullets were designed to be used on varmints..

I did hit a doe once in the shoulder. Can't remember if it hit the shoulder first or hit the shoulder from the inside. Either way it turned the shoulder meat to instant hamburger. Waste of a shoulder. I like the way they shoot, and have yet to fail. But like you said, with my luck, the day that big Buck walks out will be the day I wish I had not shot the balistic tips.

Alright goat its on now...
You will NOT stop a ballistic tip in a whitetails shoulder. Will not happen. Can not happen. Ain't fricking happening. I've shot them in the joint and it blows everything into the chest cavity and the bullet went out the opposite side. If that doesn't prove it, nothing will. That's a fantasy.
Yeah they can run forever on three legs but in order to hit just the shoulder and not perforate the chest cavity you'd have to hit it from some odd angle coming or going away from you which wouldn't have killed them with a freaking 50 cal.
Your scenarios are impossible.
And whitetails and antelope are listed as two animals, along with varmints Nosler Ballistic tips were designed for and they do a phenomenal job of it. Because WHITETAILS AREN'T ARMOR PLATED NOR ARE THEY THREE FEET THICK.
