Had the opposite problem, tried 75gr and could stabilise them!
@bigred head shots on goats is good practise, just behind the ear and they either drop on the spot or you miss! Can go well past 200m if you don't want to recover the meat from goats which is another bonus

Thanks 223nut guess its better to practice in something that I wouldn't be too uspet about missing.
