Gave him about 30 mins to expire. When we started tracking him we found nothing! No blood,no hair,nothing! Part of hunting sometimes...

& really Ryan that has nothing to do with ammo........That's hunting! I've shot them SOB's at 10 steps with a 50 cal muzzle loader, a 300 grain chunk of lead & didn't find them! He hit the ground like he'd been hit upside the head by a Mack truck! Then left! I killed one with buckshot that only one pellet hit it in the front leg at the knee & it bleed out!!!! How freaking crazy is that! You'll win some & lose some! & I know.........we need to do everything in our power to win em all. But if that's what your guns likes stick with it, it's easy to get discouraged & change, don't know how many times I've been discouraged & wanted to change, but most of the time it boiled down to my error & I didn't want to accept it.
