I started shooting this combo in 2016.
6 cows -All but 1 never went further than 20 yards. 1 was drt (high shoulder) and 1 peeled off from the group and went maybe 50 yards then slid down a snowy slope.
1 bull - Soaked up 3 shots to the lungs. Went 100 yards. First shot was lethal but put 2 more in him. He never hunched or showed signs of being hit on the first 2 shots.
5 muley bucks - 3 went maybe 20 yards and 2 were drt
4 antelope - drt
2 whitetail does - drt
This year I'm running the 223 and 73 gr eldm
1 antelope - Went 20 yards and flipped backwards.
