deer I shot with a 50bmg I must be a redneck

[billdick]

1/2" hole clear through and no damage. Less damage than even my old 243

Nice! What was the distance? Where was the hit? Did the deer go far? And... Wait for it... Did ya need a second shot?

Cheers

Great performance on that round... Surprising...

Very nice.. did it drop right there?... you wouldnt think it ran too far with a fifty.

to cool.

I would guess, and it is only a guess that a big heavy bullet like that is going to leave less energy in the animal than a fast expanding 7mm or 7.62mm bullet traveling at high speed.

Like he said less damage than his .243 , maybe the big 5 Ohhhh is the new meat saving chambering.

wow nice!

It almost looks like a huge Coyote saying on its side with the fur!

I was thinking the same thing when I read the other thread. A big hole, thru and thru, lots of umph and very little lead contamination.......I like it!

Wonder where the bullet ended up after the pass through??

i know , What kind of Deer is that??? LOL!

Roe Deer? Dont look like no Whitetail or mule deer..

 

[diemaco]

What type of bullet was used? Amax? FMJ? may partially explain the lack of expansion.

 

[blasted_saber]

Glad I wasnt the only one (who thought it looked like a wolf)....

The shot was only about 150 yds and it ran in a loop for about a total of 80 yds. The bullet is in the hillside behind where it was standing. It is a mule deer doe and it does look like a wolf in the picture. The load is a 750 gr amax and only 230 grs of us869 and cci primer and military brass. The rifle was made in Belgrade Montana and is owned by my cousin and her boyfriend. I've shot deer with my 458 and it saves meat also.
