Thought I would share. I was impressed it went through this tree. Unimpressed I missed the doe I was shooting offhand at. Lol

Hornady 250 SST were a complete pass through on the buck I shot a week ago.
Shot out of a CVA optima with 80 grains by weight of Blackhorn 209. Haven't chronoed it yet though.
