    Renegade 54 cal first shoot, plus remington 1858 shoots.

    Round ball and blood trails

    And your wrong again ! My other handle is stikshooter/35 yrs of instinctive shootin . You go your way and I'll go mine but my arrows get more penetration usually more blood and less noise than your RB .

    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    Could not have send the obvious any better , glad someone said it ! Too many on forums talk about RB performance and their accuracy levels on the internet ignoring their obvious limitations in reality . Bigger is always better unless squirrel hunting ! That's why barkin was used ./Ed

    T/C Renegade: Another “damaged in shipment” story…
