270 130 gr can achieve 3200 fps. Mine do.
But I suspect you didn't give the animal enough time to lie down. i.e. Shot got up or down from your stand and immediately walked towards the animal where it was last seen. Causing it to bolt. {Rookie mistake.} Not laying down and up on its legs >its shooter < is in for a long stroll thru the bush so to garner its retrieval by his not waiting 20 minutes to 1/2 hour to give the animal a chance to lie down bleed and weaken its ability to walk or run. No matter you retrieved the animal so's all's good

I sat in my stand and watched my deer run 300 plus yards before it piled up dead. Rookie mistake?
