About LinkBacksIt is why I love this forum. Every thread I go someone have a great subject to discuss, jokes apart this thread has been GREAT to me. I use a 7mm Mag for my general hunt and I shot 3 or 4 deer with my .223, all of them drop on the spot and one walk no more than 40 metres up hill, except one shot that was just over 100mts the others was around 50-60.
In all the cases I did a neck shot.
Reading all the posts in this thread make me rethink all my attitude regards shot placement and if I will in the future try to shoot any animal further than 150mts with my .223.
I use a heavier projectile(Sierra 65gr SPBT) than the ones described here.
Thank you a lot all of you guys for make this forum so instructive.
All the best.
