200g SST WOW--I'm A Believer @@ Warning-Graphic Pics! @@
After all the positive reports on the 200g ShockWave/SST, I worked up a load for my 45cal Disc Elite. Got it going about 1900fps, sighted in at 120yards dead on.
Went out today and saw THE biggest Doe ever [:-] Turned out to be a Buck that had dropped its antlers [:@] Anyways IT was walking with a slight limp at about 150yards thru some tall grass/field type groth. I was in a 15ft ladder stand, and then I stepped up onto the seat to get a better look/angle. Aimed dead on behind the shoulder, and let fly!
WhooWee! That huge buck went 2 steps and DRT
Got down and got to him and discovered she was a HE [&:] Got the knife out and found both lungs jellified. Nicked a rib going in, and broke one going out 
When I got him home, I discovered a fractured and infected(puss filled) hoof was the cause of the slight limp [:'(]---Yuck)
Turns out to be about 250lbs, biggest deer I've ever shot
Thank You Jesus!
Following pics are in my messy garage....I promised the wife to clean it this Spring :shock:

That really is a BIG deer. It looks like it just recently lost the horns. Guys claim the bucks around here are dropping their horns, but since I have none I my land I could not prove that... That 200 grain Shockwave really does seem to have some deer killing ability. I have read others post about that bullet...

My buddiehelped me sled him out of the woods.
His first words were:
"Those are the BIGGEST tender loins I've ever seen!"

A bigger deer but the same results, Congratulations on the so very nice buck.
They do a really good job on wild hogs too.
what powder and load?

I was shooting the equivalentof90gPinnacle 3fg, behind the 45/40 cal Hornady 200g SST with the supplied tan sabot.
