Little bigger than nickel, went in between ear and the eye, just enough force to pass through head. First deer bullet passed through just behind shoulder and exited between neck and shoulder. Took out neck and shoulder.
 
Nice deer but did anyone ever tell him not to shoot a deer with another one behind or beside it, bullet could of just as easily crippled the other deer(bullets dont always travel a perfect path) and been lost.... not really a good practice for a young hunter to get into..
 
It was an accident, and was not meant to be, by time I saw the other deer it had already walked behind the other to late to stop him from shooting. I'm not getting into ethics about it. I know you don't do what you are saying.
