Just busting your stones, dude. 
 I never miss......
 I found blood droplets on the ground just not very much. After that happened I went inside and research the maximum distance m193 will fragment out of a 10.5" and it was something like 15 yards yote was probably 40.Yeah I like the Mk318 and the heavier TSX rounds out of my 12.5". I have my HD mags loaded with the 50gr TSX rounds, but inside a house the short barrel shouldn't play a factor. I would treat yotes as varmints and not assume M193 will work the same with them.

M193 can work; the problem is that it only works "as advertised" approximately 15% of the time.
