shot an 8 pointer that weighted about 150 with my beo. First thing ive killed with it. The wife killed a asian water buffalo that went about 1500 lbs with it using punch bullets but i had never hunted with it. I was using renieer 300 grain hps. Shot the deer in the shoulder (only shot i could get through the brush) at about 50 yards. That hp broke the shoulder and exited right behind the oposite shoulder but the bullet came unglued. It was a mess. Both shoulder shot to heck and the whole rib cage on the oposite side was a black mess. Found little chunks of jacket everwhere. If theres a next time it wont be with the hp but was thinking about how devistating it would be in a self defense situation.
