I noticed most (all?) deer dropped when hit, ie none seemed to hobble off.
So either very good shooting with a rifle or it was a shotgun.

Given DOC used shotgun on tahr I would guess a person intending to just destroy deer would use the same?

Back in the good old days they were cheap enough not to pack a sad. Of course they'd be a business expense if you're a pro shooter.

00buck is the most common choice of shotgun ammo

yes I know that....#7 isnt common loading but it sure as shit is more effective on smaller animals....wallabies we found were better off with #BBs or #2 as it filled out pattern and had enough penertration for those tthin skinned/light boned hoppers who are as a rule no heavier than a fat Labrador . the #7 has less pellets but way more penertration,than BBs.....way more pellets and less penertration than 00 sort of best of both worlds....in my experience.
