[QUOTE="Urban_Hunter, post: 3075955, member: 12353"] I believe the bullet came apart. There was about a 3" round open wound. Almost looked like someone took a scalpel and took a 3" skin graph. I think the bullet hit the fur and started expanding, hit the skin and expanded more, hit the bone and just flew apart. There was absolutely zero internal damage. The weirdest part was the amount of hair loss. Where the deer was standing originally there was a giant pile of hair. I know bullet selection is key when using small calibers, I have no idea what he was using. We were just walking out of the woods together for lunch and it was a 4pt standing at about 50yds. I'm not saying that is exactly what happened to the bullet as I did not film it with a high speed camera from the side, that is just my guess based on the observation I saw after the deer was dead. The second shot that killed him seemed to function flawlessly. [/QUOTE]
