Curious what others have experienced. Shot a small doe at 70 yds behind the shoulder...blew up her insides but didn't have much of a blood trail. Shot a 225lb buck behind the shoulder quartering away at 200 yards and he ran 30 yds without much blood, but it tore him a new one inside. Vitals were jelly and a shard must have splintered off from hitting the ribs on entry - went straight up and jellied his neck. Entered at 2724 fps and had 2768 energy.
I have zero complaints, just haven't seen many on-game performance discussions. Should have a few more deer in the next several weeks and hopefully a few hogs as well. Let's hear your experience with them.
Pics from the buck...these are coming out of a 280AI at right about 3000 fps.

Neck damage, same side as entry
Obligatory trophy shot
