Last year it got info from several hunters here for a load to use for deer in my 308 LTR. I tried the 125NBT and killed 3 does, all bang-flop. Ranges 125-192yds. All pass thru shots.
Last week I tried he same load on a 190# buck @ 170yds and got different results. Bullet entered breaking a rib, 1" hole and broke a rib on the other side and did't get to the hide. Lungs were complete mush. The buck ran 100yds and fell DRT.
I also shot a 100# doe @ 100yds and got bang-flop.
I may go up to the 150NBT and give it a try on larger deer.
