    Mate put 2 shots into a big red stag at 130yds with a 6.5 creedmoor shooting the 143gr ELD-X precision hunter. First shot neck then managed to put one into the body as it ran off. Spent 3hrs looking for it and could not find it despite finding blood, fat and bone

    No offence to you mate, or you, but if he put one in the neck and it ran off, that's because he missed the spine.

    Yeah no offence taken. Still put a 2nd shot in and it didn't slow it down
