Deer
Started hunting farm deer the last few years and god forbid I bought the only magnum rifle I ever sort of admired or figured I'd ever use (7mm Remington). I missed a nice big fat doe at 400 yards with that 7mm mag from a (prone rest) that I thought I knew the trajectory earlier that morning. (need range time with that thing) So I said "heck I'm not going to shoot anything over 200 yards the rest of the day. I knew the AR was dead on at 200 and have been watching all the video's of the vortex bullets performance and peoples reviews. I really would have liked it to have gone through the lungs.
When I was spilling the innards out I kept seeing lots of what looked like clotted up blood. After examining it it was the liver in a hundred small pieces. Its like when the spinning bullet hit it inside the deer the reaction was like shooting a melon. Some of the bits of meat and blood actually spit back out the entrance wound as the deer was falling.
