Having seen x-rays of deer shot with the normal chest shot and the way lead fragments going all the way around the carcass and when butchering the mess that even perfectly placed shots make in terms of bloodshot meat when shot with conventional bullets and having thrown the front half of quite a few deer shot through the shoulders I am coming round to thinking about using non toxic monolithic type bullets. The American Barnes x and Hornady GMX are tough to get hold of in U.K. So thinking of trying the Fox Bullets that are now coming on the market.

I particularly unhappy with my 243 and the brand of ammo seems to have changed their bullets and get full blow up with conventional soft point on a shoulder of a Roe buck - not exactly a big deer.

Any body used them in anger?
