That's a very nice buck. Congrats to you !!
When you run out of sign(blood) go back to last spot... I've done it many times!

I'll take rapid expansion over delayed expansion, especially on a whitetail

Delayed expansion? What bullet has that?

A lot better powders than 4198.. Very Nice Deer. I run 123 ELD M with IMR 8208 XBR and it does a very good job.

I took the Easy Shot behind the shoulder, exit wound was very small no blood on either side. Three tiny droplets of blood total in 75 yards.

I would expect that you find portions of the bullet in the deer and a fragment is what exited.

Delayed expansion? What bullet has that?

Bonded bullets in general.

It's funny how opinions change. I like the rapid expansion of the BT more than an accubond. I personally would go in a different direction than a nosler bullet

My freezer is full of deer killed the nosler bullets.

I recommend the op kill another deer with his load and see if he gets different results. Bullet for strange things sometimes due to a multitude of factors. Deer are not a consistent medium

Go to a TTSX and leave your problems behind

Barnes bullets are great but for deer light for caliber bullets are best. And better if pushed fast as possible
