    Years ago I remember hunting goats with a friend using a Parker hale .2506 and it wouldn't put the aminals down. I remember thinking at the time that either the bil lets were going straight through or exploding on impact. As some have said it sounds like the right type of bullet is important to the success of this caliber, especially if lighter weight and travelling at 3400 fps.
