I had a large doe that dropped in her tracks with a shot right behind the shoulder and a yearling doe that ran maybe 30 yards but left a blood trail Ray Charles could follow. I dont know what the internal damage looked like as they were both donated to my migrant help on the farm.
The message I got out of this thread is that TNT is darned near a frangible. Highly effective and decent penetration, but shatters and will spew metal bits all into the meat. Which I gather is an unpleasant experience when eating meat that was near the impact. So for killing stuff, it's great. For harvesting meat... well, try to do head and neck shots I guess?
