Here's a .50 Cal 300 gr FPB a buddy recovered after crushing 3" of vertebrae, through the back of the skull, and lodging in the nasal cavity of a mule deer buck. I'm disappointed they've been discontinued, they shoot really well in my T/C Triumph.
Wyoming October 2020 with my little man and good buddy from Laramie behind the camera. Had a few bigger bucks I was interested in but with a big storm coming in overnight I decided to go for the sure thing on a buck I was plenty happy with. I just hope it doesn't take so long to draw next...
If .284" 140 grain Accubonds, Partitions, and TTSX were all that existed, I'd never miss any of the others, especially if all my hunting shots were inside of 500 yards.
I used to always wonder why people went all goo-goo for deer jerky. Then I stopped using soy sauce, tabasco, and Worcestershire. Now I get it...
No disrespect to anyone who prefers the former intended, just not my taste.
