[QUOTE="Wolverine72, post: 5203364, member: 16554"] I have used the 295 powerbelt's for over 10 years with 100 grains pyrodex and the last few years with 90 grains of BH209. I love them. Other hunters sometimes shun my choice, but it works for me. I don't care much if it passes through or not because they pretty much drop in their tracks. The deer in my photo went about 225 lbs. and he literally fell in his tracks with the 295g PB and 90g BH. In fact, it's not uncommon for me to find the mushroom bullet just under the hide on the opposite side of the deer. I may be wrong, but I'm thinking the deer absorbs 100% of the energy of the bullet, and that's why it's dropping dead. You have to find out what works in your gun and stick to it. if PB ever stops making the 295's, i'll be in the same place as you... having to find another option. i have about 100 of them at home, so I should have plenty for years to come.
