    We usually use 69gr tmk’s. I’ve found with good shot placement they enter, frag, deposit all their energy in the vitals and 90% of the ones I’ve shot all drop. Longest I’ve had one run was 50 yards. I keep shots with a 223 under 200 yards. Just for reference here’s a small doe my son shot through the neck with a 50 gr vmax at 100 yards. Straight through the spine. Heck of an exit wound.
