Bass Pro and Cabelas staff are highly encouraged to move PBs and pellets for larger profit margins. Get them to the register and move on to the next victim as quickly as possible.

We don't need el-primos to harvest deer.

I don't have any numbers. It's just a guess, but I bet Powerbelts are not only #1 in sales, but it game taken too.
Yes, I know when you sell more you have more chance for kills, but some of you make them sound like they don't work at all.
They're overpriced, and wouldn't sell if thy didn't work. I've mentioned this before. In my area everybody uses PB's. They love them, and i've never heard one hunter say they failed. They are also far from noobs, and have been hunting the ML season since it started. The gun shop owner has also never had any feedback of failures. Everybody is puzzled when I mention it. They ask me where I heard it, and I tell them from the forum experts. Always good for a laugh.
Give it up. PB's aren't going anywhere.

The problem is Muley, most people don't know how a bullet should work. I shot lots of game with PB'S. Back when I used them I thought they were great. I've learned tracking Deer 100 to 200 yards is not good with a bullet behind the shoulders. As much as I don't like pistol bullets in a ML, a 250grn XTP will embarrass any weight powerbelt on the market today.
I will get my game with a PB or even a PRB, it's just not the way I wanna get them any more.

Sometimes easier isn't as rewarding.

Where you live tracking is pretty easy. Where I live, tracking means some one else shoots my Deer. Anyone who hunts public land in PA will tell you the same thing in most cases.
