Not at all. I think impact was on orange x.
I don’t think a shoulder BLADE could stop that bullet ever at that range.
New shooter making a bad shot happens. We didn’t get to recover the deer so I’ll never know for sure. All I know is what I can see on the video and the facts of the round...
Big Nate
Video shows impact just forward in the shoulder but above chest line, then bullet deflects down.
Not an ideal shot by any means but I know other rounds and most likely other bullets in the same round that would have busted through instead of deflecting.
My 11yr old was the shooter...
No sir. Couldn’t get a dog.
I’m still a huge fan of yr old son was the shooter. Still getting him used to holding lungs instead of heart with that round. Bone hit definitely caused it.

6.5 Grendel Hornady Black 123gr ELDM. Arkansas whitetail doe. 110 yards broadside. Shot low in the shoulder. Slow mo video shows bullet deflect down into the dirt. No chest cavity.
First pic you can see white “smoke” (bullet and hair). Second pic you can see where the leg is broken and folded...
I had the best trip of my life with the McCarthys at North Mountain Adventures in Manitoba. They have a teenage son who is one cool kid. He runs his own trap line and is a hunting fool. I bet your boy would get along with him extremely well.
They are wonderful folks, the camp is outstanding...
Awesome info! Sorry your hunt ended up that way.
Yeah, those fellas were killed in July. I dont know if anyone else ran that ranch other than them so there may be a few new folks out there. Ive got a lot of good rain gear and camping gear to handle the crazy weather.
