Shot this buck last Friday after walking in and up a bit, The barnes 195 did a wonderful job, exit can be seen in one image, entrance was a little higher on the other side. although the ribs and heart were destroyed very little meat was ruined, one petal from the front of the barnes was recovered on the off side and a small round exit was in the hide below the elbow. Bullet went through the leg bone on entrance, took out the ribs, and exited through the other side leg bone. There was lots of bloodshot with both shoulders but just jelled blood, no real meat damage, the heart was destroyed and the deer did a bang flop and slide. Images should be hereload was 195grain .40 barnes Light blue crush rib Fed 209 mag 58g H4198 Encore conversion

He was very fat as well thick pads on the back and flanks. We have a good but scattered acorn crop this year and he was plum full of them.

Your bullet choice is excellent! ( and crossbow also). Just wish the 195B had a better BC. Congratulations.

Nice job. Looks like you shot him with a hole-saw.

Nice!
That is what I like about the monolithic bullets. They don't really seem to do massive damage to the meat, but jelly the insides. I have started running them in my cartridge rifles, too.
