[QUOTE="thriller1, post: 275198, member: 587"] I had a similar scenario this year as well. I kicked a doe out of some brush and she was bookin. I mean she got flat to the ground and was running faster than I've ever seen a whitetail run. My boy wanted to use my 25/45 Sharps for his deer (I didnt get a tag but I had a great view of the show). First shot was a clean miss but the second one rolled her. She got up and MAYBE made it another 30 yds before checking out. I know that there is some speculation that this is a sufficient round for deer. As we walked up to her, there was little to know blood. When we gutted her, the chest cavity was full; and I mean full of blood. The bullet entered and actually "disconnected" her heart for the most part. I couldn't find the exit hole until we skinned her out. It was no bigger then the entrance hole. The hole scenario makes me wonder that ifin I hadn't seen her go down and where; we might still be looking for her. [/QUOTE]
