Took my .54 cal TC New Englander to the range today to get it ready for the season. It shot roundballs allright but it really shined with the 530 gr conicals. But after a few rounds as the barrel got dirty they started to tumble. But they still shot dead nuts accurate. Assuming the barrel is clean I expect any shot I take on a deer not to tumble. But on the off chance that it does. Do you think a tumbling 530gr conical will still be deadly on a deer at about 50yrd?
