Blemish bullets

I took a 121 lb doe Saturday morn here in North Missouri with a Blem 140 grn Accubond.
Bullet entered ribs in front of left ham and traversed the deer lodging in her neck on the right side because she quartered away and downhill from me.
Retrieved bullet still weighed 102 grns and mushroomed nicely dropping her straight down.
Rifle is a Custom 6.5 Creedmoor, shot was 60 yds.
 
Nathan asked:
Anybody order any blemish bullets from MidSouth?

Yes. Many times. 0.224 55 grain, 0.355 115 grain, and 0.451 185 grain bullets. All told, probably about 2,000 total.

I'm in the process of moving so my records have already been packed up, otherwise I could give you the exact number.

They look like Hornady...

There are enough bullet manufacturers out there producing similar looking product that I wouldn't speculate as to who might have made them (if they were even produced in the United States).

What kind of results did you have?

I don't no precision shooting. Most of the time I'm working between 100 and 200 yards with rifle and between 7 and 15 yards with pistol. But with respect to the kind of shooting I do, I have not noticed any difference between the "blemished" bullets and comparable non-blemished bullets.
