I hunt very thick cover with 50 to 60 yard shots being the max so the 220 grain will push thru the cover and still hold its line to the deer

Many tests have been conducted that prove that no bullet can strike objects such as twigs or branches without it's line being effected.Brush busting bullets are just a myth that many people refuse to let die.
