Recovered 250g T/C Shockwave bullet from a deer.

From a whitetail deer, shot broadside. Impact was at 205 Yds. MV to be checked (was 2175 fps in Oct, 60°F temps) 43g of IMR-4759, Wonder Wad, MMP Short Sabot. Ignited by a CCI 209M primer. Savage Muzzleloader. It now weighs 181g, and is .810" dia. It started out at 250g and .452" dia. The yellow piece is the yellow ballistic tip that was in the bullet.

The bullet slipped between the ribs on the near side, clipping one lung and barely exiting the diaphram to lodge under the skin on the far side. Deer was slightly quartering to when I thought it was broadside, and I allowed for more wind than there actually was.
